No. They are placed sequentially (one after the other) inside the outer loop. The space loop finishes completely before the star loop begins.
If N is the total height and 'row' is the current row, the formula for leading spaces is N - row.
The stars follow the odd-number sequence, which is mathematically represented as (2 * row) - 1.
