C program to Print  Alphabet  I star pattern 

Example 

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

    int a, b;

    int n = 7;  

    // print of the I

    for (a = 0; a < n; a++) {

        for (b = 0; b < n; b++) {

           

            // Print * for the top, middle, and bottom rows

           

            // or the vertical column in the middle

           

            if (b == n / 2 || a == 0 || a == n - 1) {

                printf("*");

            }

            else

            {

Explain Program

Step :1

#include <stdio.h>

standard input/output library for function printf() and scanf()

Step :2

int main() {

 Start of the main function where the execution begin

Step :3

    int a, b;

    int n = 7;

a and b are used as loop counters.

 n = 7 means the output  7x7 grid. 7 rows and 7 columns.

Step :4

    for (a = 0; a < n; a++) {

 each row from a = 0 to a = 6 (total 7 iterations).

Step :5

        for (b = 0; b < n; b++) {

Loops through each column for the current row.

b represents the current column number.

Step :6

            if (b == n / 2 || a == 0 || a == n - 1) {

                printf("*");

            } else {

                printf(" ");

            }

a == 0: This is the top row.

 a == n - 1 (which is 6): This is the bottom row.

 b == n / 2 (which is 3): This is the middle column.

Step :7

        printf("\n");

 printing all columns of a row, a new line is printed.

Step :8

    return 0;
