hi,
I'm having a little trouble with a basic loop. the loop needs to output a cone for the top and bottom of a rocket being cout'ed to the screen.
the output now is:
(centered on screen, of course)
*
**
***
****
*****

but needs to look like this:
(centered on screen, of course)
*
* *
* *


any suggestions?
here is my code:

void drawCone(int coneWidth)
{
	int coneHeight = coneWidth/1.5; 
	//cout << coneHeight << coneWidth <<endl;
	int count=1, innerCount=1;
	while (count <= coneWidth)
	{
		  innerCount=1;
		  while (innerCount <= (coneWidth+1 -count)/2)
		  {
				cout << ' ';
				innerCount++;
		  }
		  innerCount=1;
		  while (innerCount <=count)
		  {
				cout << '*';
				innerCount++;
		  }
		  cout << endl;
		  count++;
	}	 
	 
}
