Number Pattern Programs in Python

Learning Python is very easy, and it understands in better way compared to other programming languages. One of the many reasons why it has emerged as the most widely used programming language in this decade is the ease with which numerous libraries may be implemented. Although learning is simple, most of interviewers frequently ask us how we built the logic for pattern programmes which is the main key to programming skills.

Pattern programmes in Python are followed as:

• Square pattern
• Left triangle alphabet pattern
• Right triangle pattern
• Pascals triangle pattern
• Hollow triangle alphabet pattern
• Number pyramid pattern
• Diamond pattern
• Hourglass pattern

Before learning patterns lets discuss the code which is used to print the numbers from 0-9 and it is followed by for loop.

Code:

for i in range(10):
 print(i, end=’  ’)

Output:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Different Patterns are followed as:

Square Pattern:

Generating square pattern is very easy using Python. In order to make a square pattern, we need to utilise two stacked loops. We can set the internal loop to print the number a certain number of times, and it will print that many times. The internal loop will run based on the declaration done in outer loop.

Code:

for m in range(5):
for n in range(5):
print(n+1, end=' ')
print()

Output:

1 2 3 4 5
1 2 3 4 5
1 2 3 4 5
1 2 3 4 5
1 2 3 4 5

Left Triangle Alphabet Pattern:

A triangle-shaped pattern made out of numbers is called the left triangle pattern. The programme for this will consist of two nested loops, with the inner loop printing the number of times the outer loop has been executed and doing so for each iteration.

Code:

a = 5
for m in range(a+1):
    for n in range(1, m+1):
      print(n, end=' ')
    print()

Output:

1
1 2
1 2 3
1 2 3 4 
1 2 3 4 5 

And we can also edit and manipulate the code that tends a pattern that modifies each succeeding digit in a row, or another pattern that modifies each succeeding digit in a column.

Code:

a = 5
for m in range(a+1):
    for n in range(1, m+1):
      print(m, end=' ')
    print()

Output:

1 
2 2 
3 3 3 
4 4 4 4 
5 5 5 5 5

Right Angle Pattern:

Every time the pattern is repeated, the number of spaces rises at first.

Two loops are needed and the need is described as the first loop is initiated to

print the spaces and the other loop is declared to print the numbers in the

specified pattern.

Code:

m = 5
for a in range(m):
    for j in range(1, m - a):
        print(" ", end="")
    for h in range(1, a + 2):
        print(h, end='')
    print()

Output:

    1
   12
  123
 1234
12345

Right Pascal Triangle:

Above is a diagram of the right pascal triangle pattern. Once more, it has two figures within it: a left triangle and a reverse left triangle. How to create both of them has been demonstrated above. Let's examine this pattern's whole source code.

Code:

n = 5
# upper triangle formation
for m in range(n):
    for k in range(m + 1):
        print(k+1, end="")
    print()
# lower triangle formation
for m in range(n):
    for k in range(n - m - 1):
        print(k+1, end="")
    print()

Output:

1
12
123
1234
12345
1234
123
12
1

Hollow Triangle Alphabet Pattern:

The voids throughout the pattern make it a little difficult to make. Keep in mind a few things when creating this: only print numbers in the first and last rows, and only print numbers in the first and last positions of other rows, leaving the remainder blank.

Code:

n = 6
for a in range(1, n+1):
    count = 1
    for k in range(a):
        if k == 0 or k == a-1:
            print(count, end='')
            count += 1
        else:
            if a != n:
                print(' ', end='')
            else:
                print(count, end='')
                count += 1
    print()

Output:

1
12
1 2
1  2
1   2

Number Pyramid Pattern:

A well-known pattern that may be made with numbers is the pyramid pattern.

Each line contains an odd number of integers; the first line contains one, the second contains two, the third contains three, and so on. The programme has two internal loops, the first of which prints white space and the second of which prints the growing integers 2n +1

Code:

a = 5
for m in range(a):
    for l in range(a - m - 1):
        print(' ', end='')
    for h in range(2 * m + 1):
        print(h + 1, end='')
    print()

Output:

   1
   123
  12345
 1234567
123456789

Number Pattern:

This diamond pattern has numbers in it. If we look attentively, we will notice two figures in the pattern: a number pyramid and a reverse number pyramid. Therefore, we must write a programme that prints a number pyramid and then reverses the pattern back to front.

Code:

a = 5
#top pyramid
for m in range(a):
    for k in range(a - m - 1):
        print(' ', end='')
    for k in range(2 * m + 1):
        print(k+1, end='')
    print()
#bottom pyramid
for m in range(a - 1):
    for k in range(m + 1):
        print(' ', end='')
    for k in range(2*(a - m - 1) - 1):
        print(k+1, end='')
    print()

Output:

     1
    123
   12345
  1234567
 123456789
  1234567
   12345
    123
     1

Hourglass Pattern:

Another well-known pattern that may be made with numbers is the hourglass pattern. Although it is the same as a diamond pattern, we should have a mental image of how it looks. Two figures can be seen in the pattern when it is observed: one is the number pyramid and the other is the reverse number pyramid. So here is a complete programme for this pattern utilising the ideas from the programme above.

Code:

a = 5   # bottom pyramid
for m in range(a-1):
    for s in range(i):
        print(' ', end='')
    for h in range(2*(a-m)-1):
        print(h+1, end='')
    print()
# top pyramid
for m in range(a):
    for s in range(a-m-1):
        print(' ', end='')
    for h in range(2*m+1):
        print(h+1, end='')
    print()

Output:

123456789
 1234567
  12345
   123
    1
   123
  12345
 1234567
