For example I am trying to print the output in following way:
disk: 1 2 3 4 5
move: 1 3 7 15 31
How can I do that, can someone help me out please?
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int n = 2;
for (int j = 1; j <= 5; j++)
Console.WriteLine("disk: {0}", j);
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
Console.WriteLine("moves: {2:N0}",
n, i,(long)Math.Pow(n, i) - 1);
}
}
}
Console.WriteLine will, as it sounds, write a new line each time. If you don't want that behavior, use Console.Write.
Console.Write("Disk:");
for (int j = 1; j <= 5; j++)
Console.Write(" {0}", j);
Console.WriteLine();
Console.Write("Moves:");
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
Console.Write(" {2:N0}", (long)Math.Pow(n, i) - 1);
Console.WriteLine();
Use the string.PadLeft() method to justify your text. Of course you can replace the magic numbers with a constant value. This gives you the advantage of not having to count spaces, and automatically adds the right amount of spaces to bring the string up to the desired length.
Note that you can also get rid of the format insertion (i.e. no more curly braces).
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int power = 2;
Console.Write("disk:".PadLeft(8));
for (int j = 1; j <= 5; j++)
Console.Write(j.ToString().PadLeft(5));
Console.WriteLine();
Console.Write("moves:".PadLeft(8));
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
Console.Write(((long)Math.Pow(power, i) - 1).ToString().PadLeft(5));
Console.WriteLine();
Console.ReadLine();
}
This is the result:
You can use Console.Write and it wont print a carriage return.
However you dont need a for loop in this case. Just use Enumerable.Range
var n = 2;
var disks = Enumerable.Range(1, 5).ToList();
var moves = Enumerable.Range(1, 5).Select(i => (long) Math.Pow(n, i) - 1);
Console.WriteLine("disk: {0}", string.Join(" ", disks));
Console.WriteLine("moves: {0:N0}", string.Join(" ", moves));
Results:
disk: 1 2 3 4 5
moves: 1 3 7 15 31

I'm trying to create a pyramid in c# using a number input.
I know how to create a normal pyramid that counts from 1-20 but I can't seem to find what to change on my code to make it.
Instead of:
1
2 2
3 3 3
4 4 4 4
I need it to be:
4
3 3
2 2 2
1 1 1 1
Here's my current code:
using System;
public class Exercise17
{
public static void Main()
{
int i,j,spc,rows,k;
Console.Write("\n\n");
Console.Write("Display the pattern like pyramid with repeating a number in same row:\n");
Console.Write("-----------------------------------------------------------------------");
Console.Write("\n\n");
Console.Write("Input number of rows : ");
rows= Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
spc=rows+4-1;
for(i=1;i<=rows;i++)
{
for(j=spc;j>=1;j--)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for(k=1;k<=i;k++)
Console.Write("{0} ",i);
Console.Write("\n");
spc--;
}
}
}
First, you need to reverse the for loop. So that it starts with rows, loops while greater than zero, and decrements and each iteration
for (i = rows; i > 0; i--)
This is the main part. But you also need to take care of the spaces. So to do this we now need to keep track of how many iterations we have already performed. So we need a new variable initiated before the loop.
int iteration = 1;
for (i = rows; i > 0; i--)
.....
Then we need to use this, in the loop to output the number. And then increment it afterwards.
for (k = 1; k <= iteration; k++)
Console.Write("{0} ", i);
iteration++;
So the whole loop now looks like;
int iteration = 1;
for (i = rows; i > 0; i--)
{
for (j = spc; j >= 1; j--)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for (k = 1; k <= iteration; k++)
Console.Write("{0} ", i);
Console.Write("\n");
spc--;
iteration++;
}
Now the challenge is, can you try to optimise this further?
Instead of the following:
Console.Write("{0} ",i);
You can write:
Console.Write("{0} ", (rows - i) + 1);
I want to print pattern like
but i have a problem with output.
my code is:
int i, j, k;
for (i = 5; i >= 1; i--)
{
for (j = 5; j > i; j--)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for (k = 1; k < (i * 2); k++)
{
Console.Write("*_");
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Console.ReadLine();
There are just a couple of issues:
You're writing "*_" for every iteration, including the last. Instead, we should only write "*" on every iteration, followed by "_" on every iteration except the last one. We can do this with two different Console.Write calls, where the second one checks to see if our iterator is at the last position.
You're iterating twice as many times as you need to when you do k < (i * 2) (on the first iteration, i == 5, so i * 2 == 10, which means we'll iterate 9 times). We can fix this by changing it to k <= i
As a side note, we can declare our loop variables locally in the for loops. This reduces their scope, which is usually a good thing.
For example:
for (int i = 5; i >= 1; i--)
{
for (int j = 5; j > i; j--)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for (int k = 1; k <= i; k++)
{
Console.Write("*");
if (k < i) Console.Write("_");
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Console.ReadLine();
The code can be simplified a little bit if we use the string constructor that takes in a character and a number of times to repeat it to write our spaces, and if we iterate one less time in our inner loop we can write "*_" followed by a WriteLine("*"):
for (int i = 5; i >= 1; i--)
{
// Write (5 - i) spaces at once
Console.Write(new string(' ', 5 - i));
// Write 'i' count of "*", joined with a "_"
Console.WriteLine(string.Join("_", Enumerable.Repeat("*", i)));
}
Console.ReadLine();
So many ways to do this...here's another one using StringBuilder and a slight cheat by getting rid of the last "_" with Trim(). It's written generically to take the desired number of rows:
public static void Main()
{
StarPattern(7);
Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to Quit...");
Console.ReadLine();
}
public static void StarPattern(int numberStarsInTopRow)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for(int row=0; row<numberStarsInTopRow; row++)
{
sb.Clear();
sb.Append(new string(' ', row));
for(int stars=0; stars<(numberStarsInTopRow-row); stars++)
{
sb.Append("*_");
}
Console.WriteLine(sb.ToString().TrimEnd('_'));
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
Output:
*_*_*_*_*_*_*
*_*_*_*_*_*
*_*_*_*_*
*_*_*_*
*_*_*
*_*
*
Press Enter to Quit...
Here's a compact version using the trick posted in the comments by LarsTech:
public static void Main()
{
StarPattern(7);
Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to Quit...");
Console.ReadLine();
}
public static void StarPattern(int numberStarsInTopRow)
{
for(int row=0; row<numberStarsInTopRow; row++)
{
Console.WriteLine(new string(' ', row) + String.Join("_", Enumerable.Repeat("*", numberStarsInTopRow - row)) + Environment.NewLine);
}
}
My question is how to make a pyramid using * and 'space' in C#? The output will be like this.
*
* *
* * *
* * * *
* * * * *
We only need to use "for loop" for this program. I only know how to make this one.

I made a program like this:
static void Main(string[]args)
{
int i=o;
int j=o;
for(i=5;1>=1;i--)
for(j=1;j<=5;j++)
{
Console.Write("*");
}
Console.WriteLine(" ");
}
I'm confused when it comes to pyramid because it includes spaces. Thanks for your help!
think about how you'd print the pyramid manually.
suppose 5 levels deep.
1st line: 4 spaces, 1 star,
2nd line: 3 spaces, star, space, star
3rd line: 2 spaces, star space star space star
etc.
doesn't matter whether you print spaces after the last star or not - won't make a difference to how it looks.
what do we see?
if we have a total of X levels
line 1: (x-1) spaces, (star space)
line 2: (x-2) spaces, (star space) twice
line 3: (x-3) spaces, (star space) three times
line 4: (x-4) spaces, (star space) four times
that's the pattern. I'll leave the coding to you.
using System;
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int num, i, j, k;
Console.Write("enter the level:");
num=Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
for (i = 1; i <= num; i++)
{
for (j = 1; j < num-i+1; j++)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for (k = 1; k <= i; k++)
{
Console.Write(i);
Console.Write(" ");
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
}
Your problem is spaces, therefore I suggest you think about the spaces. Tell me this: how many spaces are on each row to the left of the first star? You'll likely be able to solve your own problem if you think about this.
Try to think of it as a grid or a matrix and see where you want the '*' in each row and how it relates to your loop index.
sorry I missed this was homework... will give a strategy ... instead
it helps if you do it in notepad and think about what you are doing... you will start to understand the relationship between the line you are on and the spaces and what not...
Post my answer after 3 hours. I think now you have almost finished it under #iluxa's advice?
int height = 20;
for (int level = 1; level <= height; level++)
{
string text = string.Join(" ", Enumerable.Repeat("*", level));
Console.WriteLine(text.PadLeft(height - level + text.Length));
}
I used some build-in methods e.g. Enumerable.Repeat and String.PadLeft, not the pure C-language way. The purpose is that I want to tell you since you have chosen C# as the programming language(not C/Java/etc), you should resolve problems in the C# way.

Try this and follow this same logic in c, c++, php, java
using System;

/** Pyramid stars Looking down
Comment this if u need only a upside pyramid **/
int row, i, j;
// Total number of rows
// You can get this as users input
//row = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
row = 5;
// To print odd number count stars use a temp variable
int temp;
temp = row;
// Number of rows to print
// The number of row here is 'row'
// You can change this as users input
for ( j = 1 ; j <= row ; j++ ) {
// Printing odd numbers of stars to get
// Number of stars that you want to print with respect to the value of "i"?
for ( i = 1 ; i <= 2*temp - 1 ; i++ )
Console.Write("*");
// New line after printing a row
Console.Write("\n");
for ( i = 1 ; i <= j ; i++ )
Console.Write(" ");
// Reduce temp value to reduce stars count
temp--;
}
/** Pyramid stars Looking up
Comment this if u need only a downside pyramid **/
int rowx, k, l;
// Total number of rows
// You can get this as users input
// rowx = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
rowx = 5;
// To print odd number count stars use a temp variable
int tempx;
tempx = rowx;
//Remove this if u use
Console.Write("\n");
// Number of rows to print
// The number of row here is 'rowx'
for ( l = 1 ; l <= rowx ; l++ ) {
// Leaving spaces with respect to row
for ( k = 1 ; k < tempx ; k++ )
Console.Write(" ");
// Reduce tempx value to reduce space(" ") count
tempx--;
// Printing stars
for ( k = 1 ; k <= 2*l - 1 ; k++ )
Console.Write("*");
// New line after printing a row
Console.Write("\n");
}
}
}
The following code might help:
public static void print(int no)
{
for (int i = 1; i <= no; i++)
{
for (int j = i; j <= no; j++)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for (int k = 1; k < i * 2; k++)
{
if(k % 2 != 0)
{
Console.Write("*");
}
else
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
Here I have created a number pyramid:
using System;
public class Program
{
public static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine("This is a number pyramid....");
var rows = 5;
for(int i = 1; i <= rows; i++)
{
for(int lsc = (-rows); lsc <= -2; lsc ++)
{
if(lsc < (-1)*i)
{
//write left sided blank spaces
Console.Write(" ");
}
else
{
//write left sided numbers
Console.Write(-1*(lsc));
}
}
for(int rsc = 1; rsc <= rows; rsc++)
{
//write right sided blank spaces
Console.Write(" ");
}
else
{
//Write sided numbers
Console.Write(rsc);
}
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
}
I have described here https://utpalkumardas.wordpress.com/2018/04/20/draw-number-pyramid
Out put is:
The is a number pyramid....

I know it's javascript but might help
let n = 6;
for (let i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
let spaces = n-i;
let str = '';
for (let j=0; j < spaces; j++) {
str+=' ';
}
for (let j=0; j < i; j++) {
str+='* ';
}
console.log(str)
}
I have found two approaches:
//1st approach
int n = 6;
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
// need to print spaces
for (int j = 0; j < n - i - 1; j++)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
// need to print * with one space
for (int k = 0; k <= i; k++)
{
Console.Write("* ");
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
// 2nd Approach
int rows = 6;
int temp = 0;
bool toggle = false;
for (int j = 0; j < rows; j++)
{
int counter = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 2 * rows - 1; i++)
{
if (i < rows - temp - 1)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
else
{
if (counter <= j + temp)
{
if (!toggle)
{
Console.Write("*");
toggle = true;
}
else
{
Console.Write(" ");
toggle = false;
}
}
counter++;
}
}
Console.WriteLine();
temp++;
toggle = false;
}
I am currently breaking my head over this simple assignment for loops that I have to do.
Basically what I want to achieve is:
1) User gives imput how long the star pyramid should be
2) Make a pyramid with a for loop.
It needs to look something like this:
(If it needs to be 5 stories high; first row is 5 spaces 1 star; second row 4 spaces 2 stars and so on.

(Hard to format but you get my intention.)
I currently have this
public void Pyramid()
{
Console.WriteLine("Give the hight of the pyramid");
_aantal = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
for (int i = 1; i <= _aantal; i++) // loop for hight
{
for (int d = _aantal; d > 0; d--) // loop for spaces
{
Console.Write(_spatie);
}
for (int e = 0; e < i; e++) // loop for stars
{
Console.Write(_ster);
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
The output is always the inserted number amount of spaces and it is not decremented correctly.
Although if I debug it it counts down correctly.
Thank you for responding.
You could use the constructor of the string class to create the repetition for you, and then print both values at once, then you don't need the extra for loops
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int rowHeight = 5;
for (int row = 1; row <= rowHeight; row++)
{
string spaces = new string(' ', rowHeight - row);
string stars = new string('*', row);
Console.WriteLine("{0}{1}", spaces, stars);
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
UPDATE
for the semantics, i will then also show it with 2 for loops
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int rowHeight = 5;
for (int row = 1; row <= rowHeight; row++)
{
int totalSpaces = rowHeight - row;
for (int j = 0; j < totalSpaces; j++)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
for (int j = 0; j < row; j++)
{
Console.Write("*");
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
well, your problem is
for (int d = _aantal; d > 0; d--) // loop for spaces
you really want
for (int d = _aantal - i ; d > 0; d--) // loop for spaces
but it really just mirrors what you currently have, and still doesn't create the pyramid look you seem to want.
I think the closest you'll get in a console app is by subtracting a space every other row:
for (int d = _aantal-i; d > 0; d-=2) // loop for spaces
which will give output:
Give the hight of the pyramid:
10

Got it !

for (int i = 1; i <= _aantal; i++) // loop for height

Check this out..!! You were missing out the iterator 'i' of the height loop inside the spaces loop.
You will get the triangle :-

You will need odd number of stars always for a symmetrical pyramid.
I know you wanted to do this as a console app but if you adapt this code it should work fine
Replace textbox1/2 with Consle.Readline/Write
int pyramidstories = int.Parse(TextBox2.Text);
int I = 1;
while (I <= pyramidstories)
{
for (int spacecount = 0; spacecount < (pyramidstories - I); spacecount++)
{
TextBox1.Text += " ";
}
for (int starcount = 1; starcount < I + 1; starcount++)
{
TextBox1.Text += "*";
}
TextBox1.Text += Environment.NewLine;
I++;
}
As your question states you need:
4 spaces 1 star
3 spaces 2 stars
2 spaces 3 stars
etc..
so your pyramid should look something like

The code sample above displays a pyramid as illustrated above
To get a pyramid (with proper spacing) like this:
You can use:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// The length of the pyramid
int lengte = 18;
// Loop through the length as given by the user
for (int i = 0; i <= lengte; i++)
{
// If its an even number (we don't want 1-2-3.. but 1-3-5.. stars)
if (i % 2 == 0)
{
// Calculate the length of the spaces we need to set
int spatieLengte = (lengte / 2) - (i / 2);
// Display spaces
for (int spaties = 0; spaties <= spatieLengte; spaties++)
{
Console.Write(" ");
}
// Display stars
for (int sterren = 0; sterren <= i; sterren++)
{
Console.Write("*");
}
// Newline
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
Obviously the if block and spaceLengte variable aren't really needed. But I thought it would make it somewhat easier for OP to read.
Good luck / Succes ermee ;)
Basic C# question:
I need to have that result when entering some number (this case was entered 4):
4 3 2 1 0
3 2 1 0 4
2 1 0 4 3
1 0 4 3 2
I was trying that code, but cant figure out my mistake:
Console.WriteLine("Please write a Number: ");
Console.Write("Number: ");
int num = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
for (int i = 0; i <= num; i++)
{
for (int j = num - i; j >= 0; j--)
{
Console.Write(j);
}
for (int j = 1; j <= i; j++)
{
Console.Write(j);
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Console.ReadLine();
This is the output I get:
4 3 2 1 0
3 2 1 0 1
2 1 0 1 2
1 0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4
Try this:
Console.WriteLine("Please write a Number: ");
Console.Write("Number: ");
int num = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
for (int i = 0; i <= num; i++)
{
for (int j = num - i; j >= 0; j--)
{
Console.Write(j);
}
for (int j = num; j > num - i; j--)
{
Console.Write(j);
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Console.ReadLine();
The problem is that your second inner loop is starting at one and counting up rather than starting from num and counting down.
Change that loop to:
for (int j = num; j > num -i; j--)
{
Console.Write(j);
}
Also I'm not clear if you want the last line of 04321 or not. If you don't (as in the original example) then just change your loop check to i<num.
Try something like this
get a number(x) from user.
create a list of integer containing x to 0.
run a loop for x times.
every time print the list and pop the first number and push it at the end
var ints = new List<int> { 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 };
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
{
ints.ForEach(n => Console.Write(n + " "));
Console.WriteLine("");
var a = ints[0];
ints.RemoveAt(0);
ints.Add(a);
}
As a hint I give you the main loop as a pseudo code:
for i from 0 to number_input-1 {
for j from number_input to 0 {
print((j-i)%(number_input+1) + " ")
}
print("\n")
}
Just for fun:
const int NUM = 4; // num from user
for (int start = NUM; start > 0; start--)
{
for (int i = 0; i <= NUM; i++)
{
int current = (start - i) >= 0 ? start - i : NUM + (start - i) + 1;
Console.Write(current + " ");
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Honestly this is a classic sorting task. it's just hidden beyond "user types and bla bla bla" but I remember at school it was..
There is an array [4,3,2,1,0].. so
we swap 1 and 2 and get [3,4,2,1,0].
we swap 2 and 3 and get [3,2,4,1,0].
we swap 3 and 4 and get [3,2,1,4,0].
we swap 4 and 5 and get [3,2,1,0,4].
so just simple code
int[] numbers let say you have this array [4,3,2,1,0]
for(int i = 0; i < numbers.length - 2; i++){
for(int y = 0; y < numbers.length - 1; y++){
int buf = numbers[y];
numbers[y] = numbers[y + 1];
numbers[y + 1] = buf;
}
}
