    Have you got as far as this?

    *
    ***
    *****
    *******
    *********
    ***********

    Or even just outputting the number sequence 1,3,5,7,9

    Either of those are small steps towards the answer

    Code:
    for ( x = 6, y = 1; x > 0; x--, y += 2 ) 
      printf ( "%*c%0*c\n", x, ' ', y, '0' );
    Enjoy
