The Steps Question

Write a function that accepts positive number N. The function should console log a step shape with N levels using the # character. Make sure the step has spaces on the right hand side.

Example:
steps(2)
‘# ‘
‘##’
steps(3)
‘# ‘
‘##’
‘###’
steps(4)
‘# ‘
‘## ‘
‘### ‘
‘####’

function steps(n) {
	for(let row = 0; row < n; row++) {
		let stair = '';

		for(let column = 0; column < n; column++){
			if(column <= row) {
				stair += '#'
			}else {
				stair += ' '
			}
		}
		console.log(stair)
	}
}

First we create function in our case steps with only one parameter named n ( n is the number of rows as described in the example above)

We create a loop with let row = 0 (starting at 0); row < n and row ++
We create also temporary variable called stair and initialize to an empty string;


inside the loop we create another loop for the columns so we create column variable to start at 0 to be less than n and to increment by 1 every iteration.

Now we check if (column <= row) and if it is true stairs will concatenate with ‘#’ otherwise stairs remains the same.
For example if n is 3

first loop row is 1 and in the second loop column is 1 so in our if statement we have If column is less or equal to row that it is true. This condition passes and we have one stairs ‘#’

Second loop row is 2 and column is also 2 again the if condition passes but since stairs is now ‘#’ we concatenate like this stairs = stairs + ‘#’ so stairs from first loop is ‘#’ than this statement is
stairs = ‘#’ + ‘#’ which makes stairs => ‘##’


Third and final loop again row is 3 column is 3 the if condition passes and now we have stairs of ‘###’

Since we initialize n to be 3 row and column loop fails and that bring us to the end.

In the end we just console.log the stairs
