How to print Hour Glass Pattern in Dart

How to print Hour Glass Pattern in Dart ?

Answer

To print an Hourglass Pattern in Dart, we use nested loops. The outer loop controls the rows, and the inner loops control the spaces and stars (*) to form the pattern.

✐ Examples

1 Hourglass Pattern

In this example,

We define a function printHourglass that takes the desired number of rows n as a parameter.
We use two nested for loops, where the outer loop runs from n to 1 and the inner loops control the spaces and stars in each row.
Within the inner loops, we calculate the number of spaces and stars based on the current row number to form the hourglass pattern.

Dart Program

void printHourglass(int n) {
  for (int i = n; i >= 1; i--) {
    print(' ' * (n - i) + '*' * (2 * i - 1));
  }
  for (int i = 2; i <= n; i++) {
    print(' ' * (n - i) + '*' * (2 * i - 1));
  }
}

void main() {
  printHourglass(5);
}

Output
