Do NOT post answers to homework questions! You are only helping the person fail.

Oh, and your solution is a bad one.

Yeah, I keep missing the stupid date it was posted. F'in spammers are resurrecting old questions to post their sh*t.

So easy just copy and paste this code...

C#

using System;
namespace PiramidPrint
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.Write("Enter any string: ");
            string input = Console.ReadLine();
            for (int i = 0; i < input.Length; i++)
            {
                for (int j = 0; j < i + 1; j++)
                {
                    Console.Write(input[j]);
                }
                Console.WriteLine();
            }
            Console.ReadKey();

        }
    }
}

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.

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

But this really isn't difficult: all you need is two nested loops: one goes through the number of characters and prints a line each time. It contains another loop which prints the number of characters for that line number.

Seriously - try it. It's about four lines of code if you ignore brackets and comments!
