C Language Tasks for Beginners

 Code :

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int i, j;
    for (i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
    {
        for (j = 1; j <= i; j++)
        {
            printf("*");
        }
        printf("\n");
    }
    return 0;
}   

• Header File: #include <stdio.h> is needed to use printf() for printing output.
• Main Function: The program starts from int main(). It returns 0 to indicate successful completion.
• Outer Loop (Rows): The outer for loop (i = 1 to 5) controls the number of rows. Each row will have an increasing number of stars.
• Inner Loop (Columns): The inner for loop (j = 1 to i) prints stars (*) starting from 1 up to the current row number i.
• New Line: printf("\n"); moves the output to a new line after printing each row.

Output :
