I need to create a pyramid using asterisks. I specify a value which becomes the base of the pyramid. The base contains as much asterisks as the value specified and the pyram

Answer 1

From what I understand, what you are looking for is an Odd numbered pyramid, i.e. the number of * in each row is as per odd number series, like 1,3,5,7. If you wish to include "if-else" statements then you can go with the above answered loops, but if you only wish to use "for" loops, then you can use the following code:

$i;$j--)
          {
            echo '  ';
          }
      for($k=1;$k<=$x;$k++)
          {
            echo '*';
          }
          $x=$x+2;  
          echo "
";
      }
?>
