U V W X Y 
 
Pattern 1:
A B C D E
F G H I
K L M
P Q
U
code
file=$1
awk 'BEGIN { a=0;}
{for(i=1;i<=NF-a;i++){printf("%s ",$i);if(i==NF-a)printf("\n")}a+=1;}
END {print "Check the pattern"}' $file
copy the above code in file pattern1.sh  then,
 
# chmod 755 pattern2.sh
# ./pattern1.sh test 
 
 
Pattern 2:
 A
  G
    M
      S
        Y
 
 code
file=$1
awk 'BEGIN { c=1;}
{ for (i=1; i<=c; i++) printf(" "); printf("%c\n",$c); c++; }
END {print "Check the pattern"}' $file
copy the above code in file pattern2.sh  then,
 
# chmod 755 pattern2.sh
# ./pattern1.sh test 
 
 
Pattern 3: 
          E
I
M
Q
U
code
file=$1
awk 'BEGIN { a=0;}
{for(i=1;i<=NF-a;i++){printf("  ");if(i==NF-a)printf("%c\n",$i)}a+=1;}
END {print "Check the pattern"}' $file

copy the above code in file pattern1.sh  then,
 
# chmod 755 pattern3.sh
# ./pattern3.sh test 
 
                      or
 
file=$1
awk 'BEGIN { a=0;}
{for(i=NF;i>=1+a;i--) printf(" "); print substr($(NF-a),1,1); a++;}
END {print "Check the pattern"}' $file
 

copy the above code in file pattern1.sh then,

# chmod 755 pattern3.sh
