namespace BrainTeaser

for (int i =1; i < 10; i++)
{

for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++)
Console.WriteLine("*");
Console.WriteLine();

}


}


}


}

Answer 1

string x;

for(int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
x = "";
for(int y = 0; y < i; y++) {
x += "*";
}
Console.WriteLine(x);
}

Answer 2

change the "j < 10" to be "j < i" and change the line Console.WriteLine("*"); to be Console.Write("*"); so you dont get a Enter key happening after each "*" displayed to make the one line...The following writeline will take care of that for each row..

Answer 3

To output better use:

Console.WriteLine("".PadLeft(i, '*'));

This will eliminate your entire looking structure with a single line.

Answer 4

Consider yourself REPORTED. CHEATER!
