A little help please

[bummielove]

Here is something that I can't figure out... How can I make a program that prints a

Number triangle with height = b
Example: b=5
Output is
55555
4444
333
22
1

?? Thanks in advance!

What have you tried?

What have you tried?

counter = 1;
	b = 1;
	do {
	printf("%d\n", counter);
	}while (counter <=b);
 	b++;

This. It only prints single numbers.

Why would you start with a low number if your output is supposed to start with a high number? It's almost as if you don't know how to count backwards. Try Googling "how do I count backwards".

Oh.... Sorry bout that. Thank you. Such a genius, (.m^m.)
That didn't helped. That was a practice code. Of course I know how to count.

Of course I know how to count.

Not according to any of the code you have posted. How about you try again?

Hint: Start at 5 and count backwards.

 #include <stdio.h>

int main ()
{

	int x = 1, y = 1, b;
	

	printf("What value for b did you enter? ");
	scanf("%d", &b);
	y = y*b;
	while ( y <= b){
	printf("%d", x);
	y++;
	}
	{
	printf("\n");
	x++;
	}

return 0;

}

How about this one? It's all mixed now! =))

Backwards is sort of a key word here. How do you get from 5 to 4? From 4 to 3? Etc.?

Good lord.... try this....

#include <stdio.h>

int main (void)
  { int row, col;

     for( row = 9; row > 0; row--)
       { for (col = row; col > 0; col--)
             printf("%d",row);
          printf("\n"); }

   return 0; }

Like the guys said... count BACKWARDS....
