Star Pattern 4 in Java

class Pattern
{
  public static void main(String args[])
  {
    for(int i = 1;i<= 5;i++)//This outer loop is for the rows
    {
      for(int j =1;j<=i;j++)//This inner loop is for the columns
      {
        System.out.print("*");
      }
     System.out.println();
     }
  }
}

Discussion

In this program, we will print the “*”, a number of times the current value of i.

Here, for the outer loop, I have taken the maximum value for i =5. Now, whenever the inner loop activates for a particular value of i, the value of “i” will become the ceiling value for j, thus it will print the “*” only till the current value of i.
