Increasing Number Triangle Starting from 11 in JavaScript

What You’ll Learn

The increasing number triangle from 11 appends 11, 12 13, 13 14 15, … — a natural step after the number-star diamond in Program 31. This tutorial covers the 9 + i + j formula, nested loops, a live preview, worked JavaScript examples, edge cases, and complexity.

📝 Problem & Approach

Given rows = 5, print a left-shifted increasing triangle: for each row i, print j = 1..i values of 9 + i + j separated by spaces.

// rows = 5 (conceptual shape)
// 11
// 12 13
// 13 14 15
// 14 15 16 17
// 15 16 17 18 19

Inputs & Outputs

Minimal workflow

for i from 1 to rows:
    line = ""
    for j from 1 to i:
        line += (9 + i + j) + " "
    console.log(line)

🔮 Live Preview

Choose a row count between 3 and 9 and draw the increasing triangle in the browser.

const rows = 5;

for (let i = 1; i <= rows; i++) {
  let line = "";
  for (let j = 1; j <= i; j++) {
    line += (9 + i + j) + " ";
  }
  console.log(line);
}

const rowsInput = prompt("Enter rows:");
const baseInput = prompt("Enter base:");
const rows = parseInt(rowsInput, 10);
const baseVal = parseInt(baseInput, 10);

if (!Number.isFinite(rows) || rows < 1 || !Number.isFinite(baseVal)) {
  console.log("Please enter valid integers.");
} else {
  for (let i = 1; i <= rows; i++) {
    let line = "";
    for (let j = 1; j <= i; j++) {
      line += (baseVal + i + j) + " ";
    }
    console.log(line);
  }
}

for (let i = 1; i <= rows; i++) {
  let line = "";
  for (let j = 1; j <= i; j++) {
    line += (9 + i + j) + " ";
  }
  console.log(line);

🔎 Worked Walkthrough — rows = 5

Trace each outer-loop value of i, inner-loop range, values printed, and full row output.

Prints per row = i — total prints = n(n+1)/2 for n rows.
