How did we define int space

#1

I understood the mechanism behind putting n-i spaces before the i’th line but why do we define it as a variable int space=1, shouldnt the initial condition be int space = n-1 as it is the first line

#2

hello @crunchybanana
in that loop we are itereting n-i times only right?
space variable we are using is for counting purpose .
which we start from space= 1 and run till space<= n-i.

#3

Aren’t we iterating n times (for n lines)

#4

for each line we are iterating n-i times. where i is the line no

#5

ok… and if the number of spaces are decreasing, why do we update it as space++? Shouldn’t it be space=space-1?

#6

no .
in n-i , i is increasing right? that means n-i will be decreasing.
so evrytime we are printing less space when compared to previous line
