c/c++ linux programming by examples my programming tips and techniques

Some Responses to “Pascal Triangle Challenge” :

1. Here’s mine :-)

   
void piramid(int const c)
{
int r, x;

   /* c: center of pyramid, r: row/height of pyramid */
   for (r = c; r > 0; r--)
   {
   /* int start = r; */
   /* int end = (2 * c - r); */
   /* start: start printing numbers, end: stop printing numbers */

   for (x = 1; x < = (2 * c - r); x++)
{
if (x < r) printf(" ");
else if (x <= c) printf("%d", x - r + 1);
else printf("%d", (2 * c - r) - x + 1);
}
printf("\n");
}
}

4. That’s not Pascal’s triangle, which contains the coefficients of the
   binomial raised to some given power.

   1
   1 1
   1 2 1
   1 3 3 1
   1 4 6 4 1
   etc.

   And you need only one variable, outside the for look counters, of course.
   Based on the fact that each number is n choose k, with n the row number and k
   the position in the row.

   So it becomes:

   for (unsigned n = 0; n

5. Truncated code:

   for (unsigned n = 0; n
