In Python syntax what Dominique said could be coded as j = "*" for i in range(1, 51): print(j * i) Note: range(1, 51) makes i range over the integers 1 to 50. j * i produces the string formed by j concatenated with itself i times. For example since j="*", j*3 is "***". But if you don't want to change your original code too much, you could also do j = "*" while True: print(j) j += "*" if len(j) > 50: break The effect is the same, of course.

You need a variable as a counter for it Either with a while loop: Int a = 0; String j = "*"; While(a<50){ j += "*"; Print (j); a++; } Or use a for loop String j = "*"; For(int i = 0; i<50; i++){ j += "*"; Print(j); }
