In this tutorial you will learn about the C Program to Print X Star Pattern and its application with practical example.
C program to Print X Star Pattern
In this tutorial, we will learn to create a C program that will Print X Star Pattern in C programming.
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.
- Conditional Statements in C programming.
What is X Shape?
The X shape pattern means a pattern containing the Star and looks like the Alphabet X. It will be created using two triangles.
Algorithm:-

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
1. Declaring the required variables for the program. 2. Taking the input number of rows from the user. 3. Generating the pattern using the nested for loop. 4. Printing the K Shape number pattern. 5. End the program. |
Program description Printing X Shape Star Pattern:-
In this program, we will first take the input number of rows by the user. Then we will generate the X shape pattern using the nested for loops and fill it with star values.
Printing the pattern filled with stars.
Let’s take the below example for the problem.
Program Code:-

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 |
/** * C program to print X shape star pattern */ #include <stdio.h> int main() { //declaring the required variable for the program. int i, j, N; //i = it will hold the integer value for the program. //j = it will hold the integer value for the program. //N = it will hold the integer value for the program. int count; //count = it will hold the integer value for the program. //Taking the input value from the user. printf("Enter N: "); scanf("%d", &N); //Generating the pattern from the code given below. count = N * 2 - 1; for(i=1; i<=count; i++) { for(j=1; j<=count; j++) { if(j==i || (j==count - i + 1)) { //Printing the Pattern using " * " printf("*"); } else { printf(" "); } } printf("\n"); } return 0; } |
Output:-
In the above program, we have first initialized the required variable.
- N = 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 X pattern.
Program Code.
