Php star triangle

Well, I don't see where you're getting stuck, apart from the fact that I don't see you using it afterwards, but I'm not judging. However, you mentioned a loop.

If you thought about that, I don't see what your problem is. The implementation is quite simple.

- You define a variable size (number of stars) if you want the generation to be dynamic (controlled by a form, for example).

- You create a loop from 1 to $size that increments by 1 each time (for the rows).

- You place $size number of stars on each line based on $size, so you will have to create another loop from 1 to $size again for the number of stars (echo '*';)

And in the end, you will have your triangle.

That's the basic idea (a very, very French draft algorithm, lol).

Now it's up to you to continue.

we have the right to do
nb = number of times
star = *

echo nb X "star"

Euh no, it'll give you an error

you can't multiply an int variable with a string variable ^^'

it would be useful though

$size = 5;
for ($i = 0; $i < $size; $i++)
echo "* ";

I'm stuck here

You forgot a loop

The first loop will be used to create the 5 lines 5lines -> 5stars

The second loop will create the correct number of stars

Basically, you redo the same loop, but this time you will put your character '*',

without forgetting the {} around each loop ^^

I tried that but it doesn't work

$size = 5;
for ($i = 0; $i < $size; $i++)
echo "*". "
";
for ($i = 0; $i < $size; $i++)
echo "*";

I told you not to forget the { and }, if it's not in your code that's normal

$size = 5; for ($i = 1; $i <= $size; $i++) { for ($j = 1; $j <= $size; $j++) { echo "*"; } }

so the logic isn't really there ....

- your loops from 1 to 5 because you have 1 star and you want 5 and not 0 to 4
- don't forget the braces otherwise your loops are useless
- make sure to place your echo '*'; correctly

well in that case it only shows me this

Hello

I doubt it will work much better :)

If your inner loop uses the same variable as the outer loop, your outer loop is useless
If both go up to $taille, you will always draw 5 stars....

$taille = 5; for ($i = 1; $i <= $taille; $i++) { for ($k = 1; $k <= $i; $k++) { echo "*"; } }

Oops... forgot the line break every time...

size = 5; for ($i = 1; $i <= $size; $i++) { for ($k = 1; $k <= $i; $k++) { echo "*"; } echo '
'; }

it gives me that: ***************
I don't understand anything anymore

oh thank you :) it was the br

ah yes, shit, I forgot that one...
a mistake of intention

mark as resolved, bye.
