Challenge: Pyramid

Task

Edit a recursive function draw_pyramid that takes an integer height and prints a pyramid of asterisks with a height of height to the console.

Expected Output:

Conditions:

You need to fill in the blanks in the code (___) so that when the current height (current_height) exceeds the specified height of the pyramid (height), the program terminates. Otherwise, the program should continue drawing the next row of the pyramid with a recursive call to the function.
