Question

I need to make a tree from *, the height need to be the number the user insert with 2 more * for extra row, and the brunk 1/3 of it.

In addition, the last row need to be with no space before.
I made the whole code, but the last and longest row appear with one space before..

where am I worong?

print "Enter tree height:"
height=input()
i=1
space=height-1
while i<=2*height:


    print space*" ",i*"*"
    i=i+2
    space=space-1

trunk=height/3
j=0

while j<trunk:
    print (height-1)*" ","*"
    j=j+1

output:

Enter tree height: 3
  *
 ***
*****
  *
Enter tree height: 8
       *

     *****
    *******
   *********

Answer 1

try change:

print space*" ",i*"*"

by:

print (space)*" " + i*"*"

when you do:

print ' ','3'

the output is different than

print ' '+'3'
