How to draw pyramid?

Let’s have some fun today and learn on how to draw a pyramid with Python.

Draw a pyramid

To draw pyramid I decided to write a code which first ask the user to enter the number and based on the number will draw a pyramid that size.

UserNumber = eval(input("Please enter a number:"))

for i in range(1, UserNumber + 1):
    for j in range(UserNumber-i, 0, -1):
        print(" ", end="\t")

    for j in range(i, 1, -1):
        print(j, end="\t")

    for j in range(1, i+1):
        print(j, end="\t")
    print(" ")

The script is basically simple for nested loops. They are drawing space or the number from 1 to UserNumber.

Draw a hashed pyramid

Another example of python pyramid is the one made of hashes instead of numbers.

size = int(input("Enter number: "))

for number in range(1, size + 1):

    for i in range(size - number):
        print(' ', end='')
    for j in range(2 * number - 1):
        print('#', end='')
    print()

As you can see this python pyramid is higher and thinner 😉

Draw a upside down pyramid

The same way we can draw pyramid upside down.

size = int(input("Enter number:"))

for i in range(0, size):

    for j in range(i + 1):
        print(' ', end='')

    for x in range(size - 2 * i):
        print('#', end='')
    print()

Draw a digits pyramid

Another python pyramid will be made of digits again.

import math

x = 10
y = 0
for i in range(x):
    a = x - i
    y += pow(10, i)
    for j in range(a):
        print(' ', end='')
    print(pow(y, 2))

Draw a letter pyramid

As we already drew digits pyramid then let’s draw letter pyramid. Here’s the one:

number = int(input('Enter the number:'))
for i in range(number):
    n = ' ' * (number - i)
    for j in range((2 * i + 1) // 2):
        n += chr(65 + i - j)
    for j in range((2 * i + 1) // 2, 2 * i + 1):
        n += chr(65 + j - i)
    print(n)

You know now, how to draw a pyramid. What about drawing something more with Python?
