Python program to print Floyd’s Triangle (3 Ways)

In this program, we will learn how to print Floyd’s Triangle using the Python programming language.

What is Floyd’s Triangle?

It is a right-angled triangular array of natural numbers which is named after Robert Floyd.

We discuss three ways to write code for it.

  • Using for Loop
  • Using while Loop
  • Using Recursion

Python programming code to print Floyd’s Triangle

Using for Loop

Code:-

rows = int(input("Enter the Number of Rows: "))
num = 1

print("Floyd's Triangle") 
for i in range(1, rows + 1):
    for j in range(1, i + 1):        
        print(num, end = ' ')
        num = num + 1
    print()

Using while Loop

Code:-

rows = int(input("Enter the Number of Rows: "))

num = 1
i = 1
print("Floyd's Triangle")
while(i <= rows):
    j = 1
    while(j <= i):        
        print(num, end = ' ')
        num = num + 1
        j = j + 1
    i = i + 1
    print()

Using Recursion

Code:-

def printFloydTriangle(rows):   
    if(rows <= 0):
        return

    for i in range(1, printFloydTriangle.col+1):
        print(printFloydTriangle.num, end=" ")
        printFloydTriangle.num += 1
        
    print()
    printFloydTriangle.col += 1
    rows -= 1
    printFloydTriangle(rows) 

printFloydTriangle.col = 1
printFloydTriangle.num = 1
rows = int(input("Enter the Number of Rows: "))

print("Floyd's Triangle") 
printFloydTriangle(rows)

Output:-

Enter the Number of Rows: 5
