can anyone tell me the code for this?

[vp1]

write nested loops (while or for) to print a trun-
cated (missing a few lines at the top) triangular figure using
integers m and k. This figure is made up of stars and spaces. First
choose smaller of m and k, and call it top. Call the other number
height. For this truncated triangle, top tells you how many stars
(`*') are there on the top line. Height tells you, how many lines are
there. For the above example, m = 3 and k = 6 So top is 3 and height
is 6. Now print a truncated triangular figure of stars (*) as shown.
Here top line has 3 stars and truncated triangle has 6 lines.

m = 3, k = 6, top = 3, height = 6

try the code given below and let me know the result
for (i=1;i<=k;i++)
{
for (j=1;j<=m;j++)
cout<<"*";
cout<<endl;
m+=2;
}

thanks.but its not giving the truncated form.

like the above one.with every line two spaces are decreasing and a stars are increasing.

it is working fine on my side can you please give the code

[D_C]

for (i=1;i<=k;i++)
{
  for (j=1;j<=m;j++)
  {
    cout<<"*";
  }
  cout<<endl;
  m+=2;
}

is how it should look. Maybe the whitespace was lost and you put more into the nested for loop than there should be?

for(int i = 0; i < k; i++)
{
  cout << string(m,'*') << endl;
  m += 2;
}

should do the same thing.
