No problem, glad you solved it eventually ;)

Thank you for your "heads up".

use "\t" certainly not, one can see in test cases these are spaces.

I did not solve this kata in C# and I'm quite bad in this language, however if I run your code on basic tests, I get this: Expected: "*" But was: " *"

You see there's one extra space in your result. Check your code...

This kata has been solved more than 44000 times, more than 3900 times in C#. This is not a kata issue but a problem with your code. You must be missing something. You can ask for help or ask a question but don't post an issue for that (and add a spoiler flag if you give elements of solution). Maybe this can help: Troubleshooting Your Solution.

I've solved the question. I'm making the pyramids to the exact specifications. But somehow it does not want me to pad the asterisks with spacings. And when I remove the spaces, it wants me to pad it. How can this be?

Im coding with c#.
