cin>>num;
for(k=num;k>=1;k--)
{ for(i=k;i>=1;i--)
cout<<" ";
if(l<num)
{ for(j=1;j<=l;j++)
cout<<"*"<<" ";
}
l++;
cout<<endl;

}
for(k=num; k>=1; k--)
{
for(j=1; j<=l; j++)
{
cout<<" ";
}
if( l <= num)
{
for(i=k; i>=1; i--)
cout << "*" << " ";

Try this one

int main()
{

int i,j,k,l=1,num;
cout<<"Enter the no:"<<endl;
cin>>num;
for(k=num;k>=1;k--)
{ for(i=k;i>=1;i--)
cout<<" ";
if(l<num)
{ for(j=1;j<=l;j++)
cout<<"*"<<" ";
}
l++;
if(num==l)
{
}
else
{
	cout<<endl;
}

}
int kp=1;
for(k=num; k>=1; k--)
{
	kp++;
for(j=1; j<=kp; j++)
{
cout<<" ";
}
if( l >= num)
{
for(i=k; i-1>=1; i--)
cout << "*" << " ";
}
l++;
cout<<endl;
}
getch();
return 0;

}

Msm: Unless I missed my guess your code I think it will actually print

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

when what he wants is

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

mot1639: Try this

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
   int i,j,k,l=1,num;
   cout<<"Enter the no:"<<endl;
   cin>>num;
   for(k=num;k>=1;k--)
   { 
      for(i=k;i>=1;i--)
         cout<<" ";
      if(l<num)
      { 
         for(j=1;j<=l;j++)
            cout<<"*"<<" ";
      }
      l++;
      if (k > 1) // skip new line on last iteration
         cout<<endl;
   }
   l = 1; // mot1639 forgot to init l which is why there were all blanks
   for(k=num; k>=1; k--)
   {                          
      if(k!=num)  // <--- don't want to add a space on the widest row which
         for(j=1; j<=l; j++)  // occurs the first time through this loop
            cout<<" ";
      if( l <= num)
      {
         for(i=k; i>=1; i--)
            cout << "*" << " ";
      }
      l++;
      cout<<endl;
   }
getch();
return 0;

}

How about having the OP do his/her own homework?

The problem is easy enough for the OP to fix for themself without giving away answers. Since many teachers do look around the Web for copied answers, your posts could get the OP in a lot of trouble.
