JavaScript Alphabet Pattern 21

Here`s a program that prints the above alphabet pattern using JavaScript Programming:

example.html
Copied
Copy To Clipboard
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<script>
var i, j;
// First Part
for(i=1; i<=5; i++)
{
 for(j=1; j<i*2; j++)
 {
  if(j % 2 == 0)
   document.write("*");
  else 
   document.write(String.fromCharCode(i+64));
 }
 document.write("<br>");
}
// Second Part
for(i=4; i>=1; i--)
{
 for(j=1; j<i*2; j++)
 {
  if(j % 2 == 0) 
   document.write("*");
  else
   document.write(String.fromCharCode(i+64));
 }
 document.write("<br>");
}
</script>
</body>
</html>

💻 Testing the Program

When you run the above program, it will print the following output:

Output
A
B*B
C*C*C
D*D*D*D
E*E*E*E*E
D*D*D*D
C*C*C
B*B
A

🧠 How the Program Works

Let's break down the logic behind the code:

  1. Initialization:
    • var i, j;: Declares two variables i and j to be used in the loops.
  2. First Part (Upper Half):
    • The outer loop for(i=1; i<=5; i++) iterates through values of i from 1 to 5.
    • The inner loop for(j=1; j<i*2; j++) iterates through values of j from 1 to i * 2 - 1.
    • Inside the inner loop, there's an if condition: if(j % 2 == 0). If j is even, it prints an asterisk (*).
    • If j is odd, it prints a character using String.fromCharCode(i+64). Here, i+64 converts the value of i to its corresponding uppercase letter in the ASCII table. For example, if i is 1, then the ASCII code for 'A' is 65, and since i+64 is 65, it will print 'A'.
    • After the inner loop completes for each i, a line break <br> is printed to move to the next line.
  3. Second Part (Lower Half):
    • The second part is similar to the first part but in reverse order. The outer loop for(i=4; i>=1; i--) iterates through values of i from 4 to 1.
    • The inner loop for(j=1; j<i*2; j++) iterates through values of j from 1 to i * 2 - 1.
    • The if condition and character printing inside the inner loop are the same as in the first part.

💯 Tips for Enhancement:

Explore the versatility of this pattern by adjusting its parameters. Whether you increase or decrease the size, tweak the spacing, or modify the characters used, each change opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to customize and create your unique visual effects.
