C Program to Print Square Star Pattern

Prerequisites

Before starting with this tutorial, we assume that you are the best aware of the following C programming topics:

Operators in C Programming.
Basic Input and Output function in C Programming.

Basic C programming.
For loop in C programming.

What is a pattern?

The patterns can be any shape or design drawn on the screen i.e. triangle, rectangle, pyramid, any other shape. In the C programming language, the patterns are generated using loops and iterative statements.

What is Square?

The angle between every two sides of the square is 90 degrees, and the sum of all the angles is 360 degrees. The square is a shape which is having all the sides equal in length.

Algorithm:-

1. Declaring the required variables for the program.

2. Taking the input side of square from the user.

3. Generating the pattern using the nested for loop.

4. Printing the square pattern.

5. End the program.

1. Declaring the required variables for the program.

Program description that will print Square Star Pattern:-

In today’s tutorial, we will create a program, that will print a square with the stars using for loop. Taking the size of the side from the user for the square. Then we will print the square using the nested for-loop.

The below is an example to print a square star pattern.

Program Code:-

/**
 * C program to print square star pattern
 **/

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    //declaring the required variables for the program
    int i, j, N;
    //i = it will hold the integer value for parent loop.
    //j = it will hold the integer value for child loop.
    //rw = it will hold the integer value for the input rows.
    
    //taking the input value from the user for the program
    printf("Enter number of rows: ");
    scanf("%d", &N);
    
    //Printing the pattern using the nested for loop.
    for(i=1; i<=N; i++)
    {
        
        for(j=1; j<=N; j++)
        {
            //printing the star patterns for the program.
            /* Print star for each column */
            printf("* ");
        }
        
        /* Move to the next line/row */
        printf("\n");
    }

    return 0;
}

/**

* C program to print square star pattern

**/

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

//declaring the required variables for the program

int i, j, N;

//i = it will hold the integer value for parent loop.

//j = it will hold the integer value for child loop.

//rw = it will hold the integer value for the input rows.

//taking the input value from the user for the program

printf("Enter number of rows: ");

scanf("%d", &N);

//Printing the pattern using the nested for loop.

for(i=1; i<=N; i++)

{

for(j=1; j<=N; j++)

{

//printing the star patterns for the program.

/* Print star for each column */

printf("* ");

}

/* Move to the next line/row */

printf("\n");

}

return 0;

}

Output:-

In the above program, we have last initialized the required variable.

Side = it will hold the integer value.
j = it will hold the integer value.

i = it will hold the integer value.

Input the number of rows for the pattern.

Code to make the pattern on the screen.
