Code a hollow diamond looking pattern

#1

please send me the proper code of this program in C++ as i have wasted my whole 2 dyas on thsis particular problem
with explaination please help me out

#2

this is not wasted it is investment
more you spend time on question to try and understand it more you got benifit

Approach
break the pattern in two halfs -> upper half and lower half
now in each half you have to print

  1. n-i stars
  2. 2*i-1 spaces
  3. n-i stars (but in first row there is one less star so consider that also)

copy the above code and reverse the loop of i for Lower portion

Modified Code

if you have doubt in this feel free to ask
