C++ Program to Print 8 Star Pattern

Write a C++ program to print 8 star pattern using for loop.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
	int rows;

	cout << "Please Enter 8 Pattern Rows = ";
	cin >> rows;

	cout << "Printing 8 Pattern of Stars\n";

	for (int i = 1; i <= rows * 2 - 1; i++)
	{
		if (i == 1 || i == rows || i == rows * 2 - 1)
		{
			for (int j = 1; j <= rows; j++)
			{
				if (j == 1 || j == rows)
				{
					cout << " ";
				}
				else
				{
					cout << "*";
				}
			}
		}
		else
		{
			for (int k = 1; k <= rows; k++)
			{
				if (k == 1 || k == rows)
				{
					cout << "*";
				}
				else
				{
					cout << " ";
				}
			}
		}
		cout << "\n";
	}
}

In this C++ example, star8Pattern function allows rows and character and prints the digit 8 pattern of given character.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

void Pattern8(int rows, char ch)
{
	for (int i = 1; i <= rows * 2 - 1; i++)
	{
		if (i == 1 || i == rows || i == rows * 2 - 1)
		{
			for (int j = 1; j <= rows; j++)
			{
				if (j == 1 || j == rows)
				{
					cout << " ";
				}
				else
				{
					cout << ch;
				}
			}
		}
		else
		{
			for (int k = 1; k <= rows; k++)
			{
				if (k == 1 || k == rows)
				{
					cout << ch;
				}
				else
				{
					cout << " ";
				}
			}
		}
		cout << "\n";
	}
}
int main()
{
	int rows;
	char ch;

	cout << "Enter Character for 8 Pattern = ";
	cin >> ch;

	cout << "Please Enter 8 Pattern Rows = ";
	cin >> rows;

	cout << "Printing 8 Pattern of Stars\n";
	Pattern8(rows, ch);
}
