Before we get into this pattern I recommend you to look to the given pattern carefully for a minute. The pattern contains N rows (where N is the total rows to be printed). Each row contains exactly N - i + 1columns (where i is the current row number).
Step-by-step descriptive logic:

  1. To iterate though rows, run an outer loop from 1 to N.
  2. To print columns, run an inner loop from i to N. Inside this loop print the value of j (where j is the current column number).

How to learn from this program

First read the algorithm, then study the program code line by line. After that, compare the code with the output and finally go through the explanation. This approach helps learners understand both the logic and the implementation properly.
