Example

/*Program to print the Left and right arrow pattern*/
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
   int r, c, rows; //Left Arrow Pattern
   int r1, c1, rows1; //Right Arrow Pattern
   clrscr();
   printf("Enter number of rows to print the Left Arrow Pattern: ");
   scanf("%d", &rows);
   printf("
");
   printf("The Left Arrow Pattern is:");
   printf("
");
   for(r=1; r<rows; r++){
      for(c=1; c<=(rows-r); c++){
         printf(" ");
      }
      for(c=r;c<=rows; c++){
         printf("*");
      }
      printf("
");
   }
   for(r=1; r<=rows; r++){
      for(c=1; c<r; c++){
         printf(" ");
      }
      for(c=1; c<=r; c++){
         printf("*");
      }
      printf("
");
   }
   printf("Enter number of rows to print the Right Arrow Pattern: ");
   scanf("%d", &rows1);
   printf("
");
   printf("The Right Arrow Pattern is:");
   printf("
");
   for(r1=1; r1<rows1; r1++){
      for(c1=1; c1<=(2*r1-2); c1++){
         printf(" ");
      }
      for(c1=r1; c1<=rows1; c1++){
         printf("*");
      }
      printf("
");
   }
   for(r1=1; r1<=rows1; r1++){
      for(c1=1; c1<=(2*rows1 - 2*r1); c1++){
         printf(" ");
      }
