Problem
The string
"PAYPALISHIRING" is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)P A H N A P L S I I G Y I RAnd then read line by line:
"PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"
Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:
string convert(string text, int nRows);
convert("PAYPALISHIRING", 3) should return "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR".Algorithm
Using an array of StringBuilders to build each row. For odd column, sequentially append each letter from s to each row's string builder. For even column, do this reversely, and omit the last and first row.
