Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int i,j;
i=1;
j=1;
//outer loop for lines
while (i<=5)
{
// inner looo for star
while (j<=i)

{
cout<<"*";
j++;
}
cout<<"\n";
i++;
}

return 0;
}

Answer 1

after the inner loop you have to reset j = 1 otherwise when execute again it will be always equal to the i variable:
first time
j=1
j=i (so exit loop)
j++ -> j=2
after that i++ -> i=2
so second time yiu have:
j=2
i=2
so it will execute only once again!
You should do this:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int i,j;
i=1;
j=1;
//outer loop for lines
while (i<=5)
{
// inner looo for star
while (j<=i)

{
cout<<"*";
j++;
}
j = 1;
cout<<"\n";
i++;
}

return 0;
}
