Basically, when the user types in amount there will be a triangle
formed as follows with x determining the width of the first line. EG:
if i type in 10. The first line will be 10 stars, and the length will
be 5.

As you can see, the width of each line goes down by two each line -
that is intentional. However, I have no idea on how to push the stars
further to the right!
Here's my code: (or at least some of it!)
int x = 0 ;
int y = 0 ;
int count ;
int count2 ;
boolean done = true ;
while (done == true)
{
c.out.println("Enter value for x, you bam") ;
x = c.input.readInt() ;
if (x <= 0)
{
done = true ;
}
else
done = false ;
}
y = x ;
for (count = 1; count <= x ; count++)
{
for (count2 = 1; y >= count2; count2++)
c.out.print ("*") ;
y = y - 2 ; // not part of the for statement, it would seem
c.out.println (" ") ;
}
}
