In this program, the nested do-while loop is used to print the star pattern. The outermost loop runs 5 times and for every loop, the innermost loop runs i times which is 1 at first, meaning only one "*" is printed, then on the next loop it's 2 printing two stars and so on till 5 iterations of the loop executes, printing five stars. This way, the given star pattern is printed.
