Answer:
The code segment was written in Python Programming Language;
The while loop equivalent is as follows:
i = 1
j = 1
while i < 6:
while j < i + 1:
print('*',end='')
j = j + 1
i = i + 1
print()
Explanation:
(See attachment for proper format of the program)
In the given lines of code to while loop, the iterating variables i and j were initialised to i;
So, the equivalent program segment (in while loop) must also start by initialising both variables to 1;
i = 1
j = 1
The range of the outer iteration is, i = 1 to 6
The equivalent of this (using while loop) is
while ( i < 6)
Not to forget that variable i has been initialized to 1.
The range of the inner iteration is, j = 1 to i + 1;
The equivalent of this (using while loop) is
while ( j < i + 1)
Also, not to forget that variable j has been initialized to 1.
The two iteration is then followed by a print statement; print('*',end='')
After the print statement has been executed, the inner loop must be close (thus was done by the statement on line 6, j = j + 1)
As seen in the for loop statements, the outer loop was closed immediately after the inner loop;
The same is done in the while loop statement (on line 7)
The closure of the inner loop is followed by another print statement on line 7 (i = i + 1)
Both loops were followed by a print statement on line 8.
The output of both program is
