The Diamond Loom

Centered Symmetry

A diamond pattern consists of a centered upward triangle followed by a centered downward triangle.

The Assignment

Your function receives a parameter height (representing the midpoint row). Total rows will be 2 * height - 1.

1. Use two separate nested loop blocks:
   • Part 1: Top half including the peak (loop from 1 to height).
   • Part 2: Bottom half excluding the peak (loop from height - 1 down to 1).
2. For each row, print the leading spaces to center the * symbols.
