47. Number Pyramid with 1 at Ends and Row Number in Middle

Write a program in C++ to display such a pattern for n number of rows using numbers. Odd numbers will appear in each row. The first and last number of each row will be 1 and the middle column will be the row number.

Sample Solution:

C++ Code :

#include <iostream> // Include the input/output stream library
using namespace std; // Using standard namespace

int main() // Main function where the execution of the program starts
{
    int i, j, n; // Declare integer variables i, j, and n

    // Display message asking for input
    cout << "\n\n Display a pattern using odd number of numbers, the first and last number of each row is 1:\n";
    cout << "-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n";
    cout << " Input number of rows: ";
    cin >> n; // Read input for the number of rows from the user

    for (i = 0; i <= n; i++) // Loop for the number of rows
    {
        /* print blank spaces */
        for (j = 1; j <= n - i; j++) // Loop to print spaces before the numbers
            cout << " "; // Print a space

        /* Display numbers in ascending order up to the middle */
        for (j = 1; j <= i; j++) // Loop to print numbers in ascending order
            cout << j; // Print the number

        /* Display numbers in reverse order after the middle */
        for (j = i - 1; j >= 1; j--) // Loop to print numbers in reverse order
            cout << j; // Print the number in reverse order

        cout << endl; // Move to the next line after each row is printed
    }
}

Sample Output:

 Display a pattern using odd number of numbers, the first and last number of each row is 1:                                                   
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                               
 Input number of rows: 5                                               
                                                                       
    1

  12321                                                                
 1234321
