Java Program to Print Right Angled Triangle with Repeating Character (Decreasing Order) Pattern

Program to Print Right Angled Triangle with Repeating Character Pattern (Decreasing Order)

In this program we are going to see how to print the right angled triangle with repeating character pattern in decreasing order.

Example-1

When character=h 
and row value=3

h
g g
f  f  f
Example-2:

When character=Z 
and row value=5

Z
Y Y
X X X
W W W W
V  V  V  V  V

Now, let’s see the actual program to print it.

Interested in programming and want to excel in it by choosing the short ways. Then, practicing with the available Java Program list is mandatory.

Approach:

  • Enter the character and store it in a variable c
  • Then enter total row and store it in an integer variable row_count.
  • Take one outer for loop to iterate the rows.
  • Take one inner loop to iterate the columns and print the character.
  • After each iteration print a new line.

JAVA CODE:

import java.util.Scanner;
class Main
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
        //Taking character to be printed 
        // as input from the user
        System.out.print("First Character : ");
        char c = scan.next().charAt(0);
    
        //Taking number of rows as input from the user
        System.out.print("Rows : ");
        int row_count = scan.nextInt();
    
        int row, col;
        //Converting the character to its ascii value
        int asciiValue = (int) c;
    
        //Checks whether the character is a letter or not
        if(asciiValue>=65&&asciiValue<=122)
        {
            //Outer loop to iterate rows
            for(row = 0; row<row_count; row++)
            {
                //Inner loop to iterate columns
                for(col = 0; col<row+1; col++)
                {
                    System.out.print(c+" ");
                }
                //Decrementing the character
                    c--;
                //Prints a newline
                System.out.println();
            }
        }
    }
}
Output:

Character : Z
Rows : 5

Z
Y  Y
X  X  X
W W W W
V  V  V  V  V

C CODE:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    //Taking character to be printed as input from the user
    printf("Character : ");
    char c;
    scanf("%c", &c);

    //Taking number of rows as input from the user
    printf("Rows : ");
    int row_count;
    scanf("%d", &row_count);

    int row, col;
    //Converting the character to its ascii value
    int asciiValue = (int)c;

    //Checks whether the character is a letter or not
    if (asciiValue >= 65 && asciiValue <= 122)
    {
        //Outer loop to iterate rows
        for (row = 0; row < row_count; row++)
        {
            //Inner loop to iterate columns
            for (col = 0; col < row + 1; col++)
            {
                printf("%c ", c);
            }
            //Decrementing the character
            c--;
            //Prints a newline
            printf("\n");
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

Output:

Character : Z
Rows : 5

Z
Y  Y
X  X  X
W W W W
V  V  V  V  V

C++ CODE:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char const *argv[])
{
    //Taking character to be printed as input from the user
    cout << "Character : ";
    char c;
    cin >> c;

    //Taking number of rows as input from the user
    cout << "Rows : ";
    int row_count;
    cin >> row_count;

    int row, col;
    //Converting the character to its ascii value
    int asciiValue = (int)c;

    //Checks whether the character is a letter or not
    if (asciiValue >= 65 && asciiValue <= 122)
    {
        //Outer loop to iterate rows
        for (row = 0; row < row_count; row++)
        {
            //Inner loop to iterate columns
            for (col = 0; col < row + 1; col++)
            {
                cout << c << " ";
            }
            //Decrementing the character
            c--;
            //Prints a newline
            cout << endl;
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

Output:

Character : Z
Rows : 5

Z
Y  Y
X  X  X
W W W W
V  V  V  V  V
