How to create a right triangle with asterisk without def function?

So far what I have is:

base = int(input("Enter a value"))
for row in range(base):
    for colomb in range(row+1):
        print('*', end='')
        print()

Sharon's answer is the quickest solution to make the code you have work, but you could also do fewer runs through for loops by just printing (once) the entire string. "a" * 3 is "aaa", for instance, so you could do:

for row in range(1, base+1):  # now the range runs [1-base] instead of [0-base-1]
    print("*" * row)

You were nearly there. You just need to unindent the last print(). Example -

for row in range(base):
    for colomb in range(row+1):
        print('*', end='')
    print()
