Those who have studied programming languages or algorithms are bound to come into contact with the Yang Hui Triangle (one of the outstanding research results of ancient Chinese mathematics). It itself is not profound. Today we will use PHP to write a program to output a Yang Hui triangle with 4 rows and 3 columns.
First of all, let’s understand Yang Hui Triangle.
Yang Hui's triangle is a geometric arrangement of Newton's binomial coefficients in a triangle. Each number in it is equal to the sum of the two numbers above.
We can easily find the pattern from the above picture:
The elements before and after each row are 1
There are several elements in whichever row
Starting from the third row, except for the beginning and end of each row, every other element is above The sum of two adjacent elements (the sum of the number at the same position in the previous row and the previous digit at the same position in the previous row)
After finding the pattern, we can set up the algorithm, Then set the program according to the algorithm (this article uses array double for loop nesting to implement Yang Hui's triangle. If you don't know about for loops, you can check out "PHP Loop Learning 3: How to use for loop statements to traverse arrays" )
Algorithm analysis: There is an array with row i and column j (j is less than or equal to i)
Double for loop, the first level of loop, traverses row i of the array; The second level of loop traverses column j of the array. And the column j value of the array must be less than or equal to the row i value of the array
Use the if statement in the second-level loop body to make a judgment. When j=1
or # When ##i=j, the value is
$array[i][j] = 1;
= $array[ i-1 ][ j-1 ]
$array[ i-1 ][ j ]
<?php function yh_put($max) { $array = []; // 循环列数 for($i = 1; $i <= $max; $i++) { // 循环行数 for( $j=1; $j <= $i; $j++) { // 每行的第一个和最后一个都是1 if( $j == 1 || $j == $i ) { echo $array[$i][$j] = 1; } else { // 上一行同位置的数 + 上一行同位置的前一位数之和 echo $array[$i][$j] = $array[ $i-1 ][ $j-1 ]+$array[ $i-1 ][ $j ]; } echo " "; } echo "<br>"; } unset($array); } yh_put(10);
The output result is:
