Program Writing in Visual Basic
Not what you're looking for?
I am having trouble creating a program in Visual Basic that prints the * in a diamond shape. Do you have any suggestions?
This is what I have so far. It is an un-proportioned diamond, I need a normal diamond. What am I doing wrong?
Dim i As Integer
Dim y As Integer
Dim j As Integer
For i = -9 To 9
y = System.Math.Abs(i)
y = (y * (-1)) + 10
Console.WriteLine("")
For j = 1 To y
Console.Write("*")
Next
i += 1
Next
Any help is greatly appreciated.
