# zybooks 4.16 LAB Warm up Drawing a right triangle
#
# This program will output a right triangle based on user specified height triangle_height and symbol triangle_char.
#
# (1) The given program outputs a fixed-height triangle using a * character.
# Modify the given program to output a right triangle that instead uses the user-specified triangle_char character. (1 pt)
#
# (2) Modify the program to use a loop to output a right triangle of height triangle_height.
# The first line will have one user-specified character, such as % or *.
# Each subsequent line will have one additional user-specified character until the number in the triangle's base reaches triangle_height.
# Output a space after each user-specified character, including a line's last user-specified character. (2 pts)
#
# Example output for triangle_char = % and triangle_height = 5:
#
# Enter a character: %
#
# Enter triangle height: 5
#
# %
# % %
# % % %
# % % % %
# % % % % %
