Python program to print Diamond Star pattern!

In this post, I am going to write a python script to print Diamond Star Pattern. I am writing this program in Python 3 version.

And, It’s a python console program to print a diamond star pattern. So let’s see.

print ("Enter the limit")
rows = int(input())

#top half
k = 0
for i in range(1, rows + 1): 
    # print spaces 
    for j in range (1, (rows - i) + 1): 
        print(end = " ") 
	  
        # let's print stars 
    while k != (2 * i - 1):
        print("*", end = "")
        k = k + 1
    k = 0
	  
    # add a line break 
    print()  

#bottom half
k = 2
m = 1
for i in range(1, rows): 
    # print spaces 
    for j in range (1, k):
        print(end = " ") 
    k = k + 1
	  
    # print star 
    while m <= (2 * (rows - i) - 1): 
        print("*", end = "") 
        m = m + 1
    m = 1
	
    #add a line break
    print() 

Read the inline comments to understand the program.

Sample output:

Enter the limit
6
     *
    ***
   *****
  *******
 *********
***********
 *********
  *******
   *****
    ***
     *
