Python Program to Print Right Half Diamond Pattern
A Python Program to Print Right Half Diamond Pattern
Short Description:
This Python program prints a right half diamond pattern using asterisks (*).
It first creates an increasing pattern of stars (upper half), then a decreasing pattern (lower half), forming a diamond shape sliced vertically.
Explanation (in dot points):
- rows = int(input(...))
• Takes the number of rows from the user.
- for i in range(1, rows + 1)
• Prints the upper half of the diamond by increasing the number of stars.
- for i in range(rows - 1, 0, -1)
• Prints the lower half of the diamond by decreasing the number of stars.
- print("*" * i)
• Displays i asterisks in each row without spaces.
Program:
rows = int(input("Enter the number of rows: "))
for i in range(1, rows + 1):
print("*" * i)
for i in range(rows - 1, 0, -1):
print("*" * i)
