Java Program to Print Pyramid Star Pattern

Write a Java Program to print a pyramid star pattern using for loop. This example uses two for loops nested inside one another to iterate the rows and display the stars.

package ShapePrograms;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class PyramidPattern1 {
	private static Scanner sc;
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		sc = new Scanner(System.in);
		
		System.out.print("Please Enter Pyramid Pattern Rows = ");
		int rows = sc.nextInt();
		
		System.out.println("--- Printing Pyramid Pattern of Stars ---");
		
		for (int i = 1 ; i <= rows; i++ ) 
		{
			for (int j = 0 ; j < rows - i; j++ ) 
			{
				System.out.print(" ");
			}
			for (int k = 0 ; k < (i * 2) - 1; k++ ) 
			{
				System.out.print("*");
			}
			System.out.println();
		}
	}
}

In this Java pyramid star pattern program, we replaced the for loops with whiles.

package ShapePrograms;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class PyramidPattern2 {
	private static Scanner sc;
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		sc = new Scanner(System.in);
		
		System.out.print("Please Enter Pyramid Pattern Rows = ");
		int rows = sc.nextInt();
		
		System.out.println("--------");
		int i = 1 ;
		while( i <= rows) 
		{
			int j = 0 ; 
			while(j < rows - i ) 
			{
				System.out.print(" ");
				j++;
			}
			int k = 0 ; 
			while(k < (i * 2) - 1) 
			{
				System.out.print("*");
				k++;
			}
			System.out.println();
			i++;
		}
	}
}

Java Print Pyramid Star Pattern using do while loop

package ShapePrograms;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class PyramidPattern3 {
	private static Scanner sc;
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		sc = new Scanner(System.in);
		
		System.out.print("Please Enter Pyramid Pattern Rows = ");
		int rows = sc.nextInt();
		
		System.out.println("--------");
		int j, k, i = 1;
		do 
		{
			j = 0; 
			do 
			{
				System.out.print(" ");
			}while(j++ < rows - i );
			k = 0; 
			do
			{
				System.out.print("*");
			}while(++k < (i * 2) - 1);
			System.out.println();
		}while(++i <= rows);
	}
}

Please Enter Pyramid Pattern Rows = 10

In this example, the PyramidPattern function prints the pyramid pattern of a given symbol.

package ShapePrograms;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class PyramidPattern4 {
	private static Scanner sc;
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		sc = new Scanner(System.in);
		
		System.out.print("Please Enter Rows = ");
		int rows = sc.nextInt();
		
		System.out.print("Please Enter Character for Pyramid Pattern = ");
		char ch = sc.next().charAt(0);
		
		System.out.println("--------");
		PyramidPattern(rows, ch);
		
	}
	public static void PyramidPattern(int rows, char ch) {
		for (int i = 1 ; i <= rows; i++ ) 
		{
			for (int j = 0 ; j < rows - i; j++ ) 
			{
				System.out.print(" ");
			}
			for (int k = 0 ; k < (i * 2) - 1; k++ ) 
			{
				System.out.print(ch);
			}
			System.out.println();
		}
	}
}
