C Program to Print Left Arrow Star Pattern using For Loop

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
 	int i, j, rows; 
 	printf("Enter Left Arrow Star Pattern Rows =  ");
 	scanf("%d", &rows);
    printf("Left Arrow Star Pattern\n");
	for(i = 1; i <= rows; i++)
	{
		for(j = 1; j <= rows - i; j++)
		{
			printf(" ");
		}
        for(j = i; j <= rows; j++)
        {
            printf("*");
        }
		printf("\n");
	}
    for(i = 1; i <= rows; i++)
	{
		for(j = 1; j < i; j++)
		{
			printf(" ");
		}
        for(j = 1; j <= i; j++)
        {
            printf("*");
        }
		printf("\n");
	}
 	return 0;
}

The result of the above c program; is as follows:

    printf("Left Arrow Star Pattern\n");
	i = 1;
	while( i <= rows)
	{
		j = 1;
		while(j <= rows - i)
		{
			printf(" ");
			j++;
		}
		j = i;
        while(j <= rows)
        {
            printf("*");
			j++;
        }
		printf("\n");
		i++;
	}
	i = 1;
    while(i <= rows)
	{
