Given a number N which represents the number of rows. The task is to print a half diamond Number-Star pattern as shown in the below examples.
Note: N is always an even number.
Examples
 

Input: N = 4
Output:  2*2
         1
         1
         2*2

Input: N = 6
Output: 3*3*3
        2*2
        1
        1
        2*2
        3*3*3

 

On carefully observing the above pattern, it can be broken down into two different triangles: 
 

  • An upside down right angled triangle.
  • A normal right angled triangle.

For the first triangle pattern: 
 

  • Run two loops, first will take care of the number of rows and other will take care of the ‘*’ and numbers being printed.
  • Inside the loops check whether the iterations of inner loop has reached to the given number of rows or not.
  • If yes, print only number, otherwise print ‘*’ and number both.

The same approach will be followed for the second triangle pattern with a slight change that here the condition will be checked where the inner iteration is equal to 0 or not.
Below is the implementation of above approach: 
 

C++




// C++ program to print half diamond
// number star pattern
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to print the given pattern
void printPattern(int r)
{
    r = r / 2;
    int count = r;
 
    // loop to print upper half pattern
    for (int i = 0; i < r; i++) {
        for (int j = r; j > i; j--) {
            if (j != r) {
                cout << "*" << count;
            }
            else {
                cout << count;
            }
        }
        count--;
        cout << endl;
    }
    count++;
 
    // loop to print lower half pattern
    for (int i = 0; i < r; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j <= i; j++) {
            if (j != 0) {
                cout << "*" << count;
            }
            else {
                cout << count;
            }
        }
        count++;
        cout << endl;
    }
}

    return 0;
}

        {

            {

            }
            else
            {
                System.out.print(count);
            }
        }
        count--;

</script>


Output: 

3*3*3
2*2
1
1
2*2
3*3*3

 

Time Complexity: O(r2), where r represents the given input.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), no extra space is required, so it is a constant.
