# Generate Pascal's triangle

Pascal's triangle is generated by starting with a 1 on the first row. On subsequent rows, the number is determined by the sum of the two numbers directly above it to the left and right.

To demonstrate, here are the first 5 rows of Pascal's triangle:

    1
1 1
1 2 1
1 3 3 1
1 4 6 4 1


## The Challenge

Given an input n (provided however is most convenient in your chosen language), generate the first n rows of Pascal's triangle. You may assume that n is an integer inclusively between 1 and 25. There must be a line break between each row and a space between each number, but aside from that, you may format it however you like.

This is code-golf, so the shortest solution wins.

## Example I/O

> 1
1
> 9
1
1 1
1 2 1
1 3 3 1
1 4 6 4 1
1 5 10 10 5 1
1 6 15 20 15 6 1
1 7 21 35 35 21 7 1
1 8 28 56 70 56 28 8 1

• @Peter Olson: What's your opinion of ratchet freak's interpretation of "you may format it however you like"? If I followed his interpretation I could shave 18 characters. – Steven Rumbalski Oct 21 '11 at 20:57
• @StevenRumbalski He's fine. There's a newline between each row, and there is a space between each number, so it meets the criteria. – Peter Olson Oct 21 '11 at 21:32
• @Peter Olson: Thanks for the clarification. What about Tomas T's assumption that n is defined already? – Steven Rumbalski Oct 21 '11 at 21:50
• @Gaffi Probably not, accepting an answer makes me feel like I'm ending the contest and discouraging new and possibly better answers. – Peter Olson Jun 8 '12 at 4:05

This is an old question now but I saw a shorter solution for VBA.

[B2].Resize([A1],[A1])="=IF(COLUMN()>ROW(),"""",IF(ROW()=2,1,IFERROR(A1+B1,1)))"


This is meant to be run in the immediate window. Input is in cell A1 of the active worksheet. Output is in the active worksheet starting at B2 and using however many cells are required based on the input. The COLUMN()>ROW() check keeps the top right of the triangle blank. The ROW()=2 check makes the first value 1 to initiate the triangle. I could have shifted the output down and dropped this check, but it introduces a lot of extraneous output before the actual triangle and I didn't feel that it was in the spirit of the challenge.

I originally posted a much more complicated method that calculated every value based on its row and column. All this method does, though, is to use in-cell formulas. I start at B2 so I can reference the row above it without #REF! errors. Then, it copies and pastes the same formula over a block of cells n wide and n tall. The input and output for n=25 looks like this:

• Very cool answer, but you can golf this quite a bit. Converting Function p(r) to Sub p(r) since you have no function output value, removing the space from debug.? c(n,k); and converting the multiline if-then-else statement to a single line (If k Then c=c(n-1,k-1)*n/k Else c=1) brings the byte-count down to 130 by my count – Taylor Scott Mar 28 '17 at 21:43
• @TaylorScott Thanks! I'm pretty new at golfing and only slightly less new to programming in general. I counted 142 because of the line breaks. From what I could find, those are supposed to count. – Engineer Toast Mar 29 '17 at 12:08
• Ah, you are right, I did forget to count my newlines, and as it turns out, at least one other golfing trick For n=0 To... can be condensed to For n=0To... bringing my version of the code to Sub p(r):For n=0To r-1:For k=0To n:Debug.?c(n,k);:Next:Debug.?:Next:End Sub Function c(n,k):If k Then c=1 Else c=c(n-1,k-1)*n/k [char(10)] End Function with a byte count of 139 – Taylor Scott Mar 30 '17 at 2:44
• A second look at this suggests that if you break it down into an immediate window function with a helper function, you can get it down to 112 Bytes (Immediate Window Function: For n=0To[A1-1]:For k=0To n:?c(n,k);:Next:?:Next Helper Function: Function c(n,k) If k Then c=c(n-1,k-1)*n/k Else c=1 End Function) – Taylor Scott Sep 18 '17 at 1:57
• @TaylorScott What about just dropping them entirely? With a change in the formula, it works just fine. I think that output starting at B2 instead of A1 is acceptable. – Engineer Toast Sep 20 '17 at 12:23

Btw, the code is compressed using 7Zip and PPMd algorithm, because the program is plain too big to post to Github in it's state of art. ## How to run this? This might be a tricky part, because naive Haskell interpreter will take ages upon ages to run this. TIO has decent Malbogle Unshackled interpreter, but sadly I won't be able to use it (limitations). The best one I could find is the fixed 20-trit rotation width variant, that performs very well.

This was simpler than trying to map an iterable, and probably shorter.

## Explanation (old)

La{Poo:1AL(_+BMPo)AL1} a → input, o → 1(predefined)
La{                  } loop a times
Po                  print variable o(joined by spaces due to -s)
o:                assign o to:
(_+BMPo)     sums of pairs of it's elements
1AL        AL1  with 1 added on both sides

### Explanation

Each row of the triangle, represented as a list, can be obtained by adding two copies of the previous row with an offset:

 [1 2 1]
+  [1 2 1]
----------
[1 3 3 1]


Pip's default behavior when adding two lists is almost perfect: it matches up the elements and adds them pairwise, and if one list is longer, the extra numbers in that list are retained unchanged. So all we have to do is offset one list by prepending a 0:

 [1 2 1]
+[0 1 2 1]
----------
[1 3 3 1]


Here's the version I started with before golfing:

Y[1]La{Pyy+:yPE0}
a is command-line argument (implicit)
Y[1]               Yank list representing the first row into y
La{         }  Loop a times:
Py           Print the current row (space-separated, thanks to -s flag)
yPE0    Construct a list which is y with 0 prepended
y+:        Add that to y and assign the result back to y


My original golfed version applied a few tricks:

• Using this tip, [1]^1.
• We can save the curly braces if the loop body is one statement, which we can accomplish by printing y in the expression that updates y: y+:(Py)PE0.
• We can then save the parentheses by changing yPE0 (y with 0 prepended) to 0ALy (0 with the list y appended; 0 gets promoted to a singleton list [0] first). This leaves us with y+:0AL(Py), but since P is unary we can drop the parentheses (though we still need a space between the operators): y+:0AL Py.

The resulting solution is 14 bytes:

Y^1Lay+:0AL Py


But we can do better!

• It would be nice to save the space before P; also, the initialization Y^1 is rather expensive.
• If we could start from an empty list (as the "0th" row) and print each row after it is updated, we could solve both problems: we could use l (which is preinitialized to the empty list) instead of y, and the P would come immediately after the loop header and therefore not require a separator.
• The problem is that our update logic, "prepend a 0 and add," doesn't work for the first row: it gives [] + [0] = [0], when we need [1].
• But, if we can prepend a 1 on the first iteration and a 0 every other time, we'll be golden. On the first iteration, l is empty (falsey); on every other iteration, l is nonempty (truthy). So we can simply prepend !l.

This approach gives us our 11-byte solution:

LaPl+:lPE!l
La           Loop a times:
!l   1 if l is empty, 0 otherwise
lPE     Construct a list which is l with that value prepended
l+:        Add that to l and assign the result back to l
P           Print (space-separated: -s flag)

• I knew mine wasn't the shortest, but not by this much. What a clean solution. – Razetime Oct 4 '20 at 3:10

1 * (x < 2 || [0; F = f(x - 1)] + [F; 0]) = [1, 1]
1 * (x < 2 || [0; F = f(x - 1)] + [F; 0]) = [1, 2, 1]
1 * (x < 2 || [0; F = f(x - 1)] + [F; 0]) = [1, 3, 3, 1]
1 * (x < 2 || [0; F = f(x - 1)] + [F; 0]) = [1, 4, 6, 4, 1]

print join(' ',@p)."\n";
@q=@p;
unshift @q,0;
push @p,0;

¶↑:;1´o¡ȯmΣ∂Ṫ*´e1


Try it online!

### Explanation

Idea is to use polynomial multiplication beginning with [1,1] and iterate multiplication, take N elements from the resulting infinite list:

¶↑:;1´(¡(mΣ∂Ṫ*))´e1  -- implicit input N
´e1  -- duplicate 1 & listify: [1,1]
´(        )     -- duplicate [1,1] and apply to:
¡(mΣ∂Ṫ*)      --   iterate the function (see below*)
-- [[1,1],[1,2,1],[1,3,3,1],…
;1                -- listify 1: [1]
:                  -- prepend: [[1],[1,1],[1,2,1],[1,3,3,1],…
↑                   -- take N elements
¶                    -- join with newlines


* That function handles the multiplication, as described here.

n=>{var p=Seq(1);for(i<-0 to n-1){println(p mkString " ");p=1+:0.to(i-1).map(j=>p(j)+p(j+1)):+1}}


A for loop computes the next line's number sequence from the previous one via simple index-based addition and by concatenating 1's via +: and :+. Unfortunately this iterative approach is slightly shorter than a "nicer" monadic approach via scanLeft :)

• I don't think you can accept input through variables that aren't passed to a function. Luckily, it only costs 2 bytes more if you golf it some more. – user Oct 31 '20 at 18:17
• You can actually get 71 bytes using scanLeft. – user Oct 31 '20 at 18:26

Somewhat based upon this other Scala answer.

Seq.iterate(                 //Make a Seq
Seq(1),                      //starting with just [1]
_                            //of length n (_ is shorthand for n=>...n...
){ r =>                      //Function to get next row from previous row r
(r,r.tail).zipped.map(_+_)    //Add each cell with the one on its right
1+:                         :+1 //Put two 1's around it
}
