For any given number n, print Hollow and solid Squares and Rhombus made with stars(*).
Examples:
Input : n = 4 Output : Solid Square: **** **** **** **** Hollow Square: **** * * * * ****
1. Solid Square : Solid Square is easiest among all given patterns. To print Solid square with n rows, we should use two loops iterating n times both. Where the outer loop is used for numbers of rows and the inner loop is used for printing all stars in a particular row.
2. Hollow Square : Hollow Square requires a little bit improvisation. Here we should again use two loops, where 1st and last row must have all n-stars and remaining rows have stars only in 1st and last column.

Output :
Solid Square: ***** ***** ***** ***** ***** Hollow Square: ***** * * * * * * *****
Time Complexity: O(n2), where n represents the given input.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), no extra space is required, so it is a constant.
