main()
{
     int z,a,b,c;
     clrscr();
     printf("Level/s:");
     scanf("%d",&c);
     for(z=c;z>=1;z--)
    {
         for(a=0;a<=z;a++)
        {
          printf(" ");
        }
     for(b=c;b>=1;b--)
        {
          printf("*");
        }
     c=c-1;
     printf("\n ");
    }
     getch();
}

Well, you can see that there are spaces in between the asterisks. Or, another way to look at it is that each asterisk is followed by a space. So if you are outputting '*" repeatedly, you would output what repeatedly instead?
