You can do search on the web for any information but all your searches would be logged and used to assess your answer.
Well my obvious guess would be to take help of ASCII table. My only search was for Ascii table in google. I did try and make it in less than 15 mins. My solution is below but do try it on your own before looking at my solution.
//Program tested on Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 - Zahid Ghadialy
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char c=(char)97; //'a' in ASCII
char loop = 0;
while(c <= 'n')
{
char x = 0;
for(; x <=loop; x++)
{
cout<<char(c+x);
}
for(char y = 1; y < x; y++)
{
cout<<char(c+x-y-1);
}
cout<<endl;
c++;
loop++;
}
return 0;
}

ReplyDeleteusing namespace std;
int main(void){
int len=1;
for (char a = 'a' ; a <= 'n' ; a++ ){
char b = a;
for (int i = 1 ; i <= len ; i++ ){
cout << b ;
(i <= (len/2)) ? b++ : b--;
}
cout<<endl;
len+=2;
}
return 0;
}
