Nested Loop Script (Triangle)

Write a nested llop script that will print the following pattern, printing one number or character at a time starting at 1 and using the numbers 0 through 9

What have you done so far?

This but im not sure what to print or how to do it for the first one.

for n=1:5
    for s=1:n
        fprintf('')
    end
    fprintf('\n')
end

[Cedric]

It is a good start, you can try to display a charater followed by a space, just to make sure that your nested loops operate as desired:

for n = 1 : 5
    for m = 1 : n
        fprintf('A ') ;
    end
    fprintf('\n') ;
end

which outputs:

A 
A A 
A A A 
A A A A 
A A A A A

It looks like it is working. Now you solved one part of the problem, and there are many ways to solve the rest.

What happens if you keep incrementing some variable within the inner loop?

s = 1 ;
for n = 1 : 5
    for m = 1 : n
        fprintf('A ') ;  % What about displaying the value of s instead of 'A '?
        s = s + 1 ;
    end
    fprintf('\n') ;
end

Are you able to print the value of s instead of this character A? Maybe then you'll want to read about the modulo operation.

Here is the complete answer to all parts of the assignment:

%%

clearvars; clc
%% Part 1.
k=1;
for ii = 1 : 5
    for jj = 1 : ii
        if k >10
            k=k-10;
            fprintf(num2str(k));
        else
        fprintf(num2str(k)) ;
        end
        k = k+1;
    end
    fprintf('\n') ;
end
%% Part 2
k = 65 ;
for ii = 1 : 5
    for jj = 1 : ii
        fprintf(char(k)) ;  
        k = k + 1 ;
    end
    fprintf('\n') ;
end
%% Part 3. Numbers
k=5;
for ii = 1 : 5
    for jj = 1 : ii
        if k >10
            k=k-10;
            fprintf(num2str(k));
        else
        fprintf(num2str(k)) ;
        end
        k = k+1;
    end
    fprintf('\n') ;
end
%% Part 3. Letters
k = 68 ;
for ii = 1 : 5
    for jj = 1 : ii
         fprintf(char(k) ) ;  
       k = k + 1 ;
    end
    fprintf('\n') ;
end
