    Here's my code. Thanks.

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main() {
    
    	int f, g;
    
    	for(f = 0; f < 10; f++) 
    	{
    		for(g = f; g < 10; g++) 
    		{
    			printf("*");
    		}
    		printf("\n");
    	}
        return 0;
    }

    you could probably just try printing like you normaly would but with several tab escapes (\t)

    just my thoughts on it. hope it helps.

    Logic dictates that you can pad with spaces, to align the *.
    Now I'll leave you to think of a solution to do just that.

    Or you can make use something like
    Code:
    printf("&#37;-100c", '*');
