In this program, we will learn, how we can print reverse half pyramid using ‘asterisks’ and ‘loops’.

C program

#include<stdio.h>

int main ()
{  
	int a,b,rows;  
	printf("Enter number of rows \t");
	scanf("%d",&rows);
	
	//decreases the number of rows
	for (a=rows;a>=1;a--)  
	{			
		//prints star in increasing order   
		for (b=1;b<=a;b++) 
		{      
			printf("* ");  
		}  
		printf("\n");
	}
	
	return 0;
}
