Apologies, this is actually more powerful than my solution which only addressed the immediate concern of printing decreasing lines. This of course covers both sides of the triangle. It was only when I thought that it should be possible to do both in one loop that I came up with the same solution! :-)

The question for Jared is do you understand how it works?
That is probably more important than getting it to work!
