I have written the code that makes the pyramid exactly how I am supposed to make it look. When I try it on my local computer, it works, but check50 doesn't agree. check50 displays "timed out while waiting for program to exit" message. How do I fix this? Here is my code and a picture to show the messages.

    #include <cs50.h>
    #include <stdio.h>

    void hash(int z);
    void space(int y);

    int main(void)
    {
        // get height
        int n;
        do
        {
            n = get_int("Height: ");
        }
        // make sure height is in the range of 4-8
        while (n < 4 || n > 8);
        // repeat height times
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        {
            int s = n - 1 - i;
            // Repeat height - i times (writes spaces)
            space(s);
            // Repeat i times (writes #'s)
            hash(i + 1);
            // The break in the ramps
            printf("  ");
            // Repeat i times (writes #'s again
            hash(i + 1);
            // Line break
            printf("\n");
        }

    }

    void hash(int z)
    {
        for (int x = 0; x < z; x++)
        {
            printf("#");
        }
    }

    void space(int y)
    {
        for (int j = 0; j < y; j++)
        {
            printf(" ");
        }
    }

Take a close look at the check50 results. Does your code accept a height of 1 or 2 or 3?

check50 is timing out because the code is waiting for an answer that check50 doesn't provide.
