Question

Thanks in advance:

// File: main.cpp

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

int recursiveCount = 0;

void triangle(const char drawChar, const int maxHeight, const int currentHeight);

int main() {
char drawChar = '*';
recursiveCount = 0;
  
cout.fill(drawChar);
triangle(drawChar, 5, 1);
cout.fill(' ');

return 0;
}// end main()

void triangle(const char drawChar, const int maxHeight, const int currentHeight) {
/* DO NOT edit code */
cout.fill(drawChar);
recursiveCount += 1;
/* END of do not edit */

/* TODO (1):
* Draw a right expanding triangle, using 'drawChar' as the character.
* The maxHeight represents the final height of the triangle,
* whereas the currentHeight represents the height of each side.
*/
  
  
  
  
  
  
}// end triangle()

Desired Output:

If you have any doubts, please give me comment...

// File: main.cpp

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

int recursiveCount = 0;

void triangle(const char drawChar, const int maxHeight, const int currentHeight);

int main() {

char drawChar = '*';

recursiveCount = 0;

cout.fill(drawChar);

triangle(drawChar, 5, 1);

cout.fill(' ');

return 0;

} // end main()

void triangle(const char drawChar, const int maxHeight, const int currentHeight) {

/* DO NOT edit code */

cout.fill(drawChar);

recursiveCount += 1;

/* END of do not edit */

/* TODO (1):

* Draw a right expanding triangle, using 'drawChar' as the character.

* The maxHeight represents the final height of the triangle,

* whereas the currentHeight represents the height of each side.

*/

if(currentHeight<=maxHeight){

cout<<setw(currentHeight)<<drawChar<<endl;

triangle(drawChar, maxHeight, currentHeight+1);

if(currentHeight!=maxHeight)

cout<<setw(currentHeight)<<drawChar<<endl;

}

} // end triangle()
