Program to Print Diamond Alphabet Patterns in C2 min read

In this tutorial, we will learn to write a C program to print Diamond patterns using alphabets/characters. However, in this tutorial, we will create a character pattern in C using for loop. So you may go through the following topic in C.

Pattern 1: Diamond pattern in c using alphabets

Enter the no. of rows: 8

ABCDEFG
ABCDEFGHI
ABCDEFGHIJK
ABCDEFGHIJKLM
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
ABCDEFGHIJKLM
ABCDEFGHIJK

   int rows, i, j, k;
 
   printf("Enter the no. of rows: ");
   scanf("%d", &rows);
 
   // ASCII value
   int alphabet = 64;
 
   for (i = 1; i <= rows; i++)
   {
      for (j = 1; j <= rows - i; j++)
         printf(" ");
 
      for (k = 1; k <= i *2 - 1; k++)
         printf("%c", alphabet + k);
 
      printf("\n");
   }
 
   for (i = rows - 1; i > 0; i--)
   {
      for (j = 1; j <= rows - i; j++)
         printf(" ");
 
      for (k = 1; k <= i *2 - 1; k++)
         printf("%c", alphabet + k);
 
      printf("\n");
   }
}
