Show us what you tried, in detail.

The series count is 702 - think how you can map 0 .. 701 to A .. ZZ using quotient (/) and modulus (%).

#include <stdio.h>

void main()
{
	char *str = " ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
	int i;
	
	for(i = 0; i < 702; i++)
	{
		printf("%c%c\n", str[i/26], str[i%26 + 1]);
	}

You do not help people by doing their homework for them.

We do not do your homework: it is set for a reason. It is there so that you think about what you have been told, and try to understand it. It is also there so that your tutor can identify areas where you are weak, and focus more attention on remedial action.

So if you want help, you need to show us what you tried, not just post your homework question and hope we sort it out for you!
Start by looking at recursion, and don't forget to add a "termination condition" to limit the max length of the string - your series description doesn't do that and it is extremely important to fix and end before you start running the code!
Begin by writing a loop to print the "first set" - "A" to "Z" - and then think how you can use that to print the individual elements of the "second set" - "AA" to "AZ", "BA" to BZ", and so on - before you start trying to code anything to implement it.

Try it yourself, you may find it is not as difficult as you think!

If you meet a specific problem, then please ask about that and we will do our best to help. But we aren't going to do it all for you!
