Hello everybody! Welcome to programminginpython.com, I’m back with another tutorial. Here I will tell you how to print a diamond pattern in Python. In earlier posts, I have shared with you how to print a pyramid pattern and reverse pyramid pattern. In this post, I will combine both to print a Diamond pattern in Python.

Task
Python Program to print a Diamond Pattern.
Approach
- Read an input integer to ask for the range of the diamond using
input() - Run 2 for loops, one for printing in a pyramid pattern and the other for printing in a reverse pyramid pattern.
- In each of the loops, every line with a specific
*and ` ` is printed.
Print Diamond Pattern – Code Visualization
Program
__author__ = 'Avinash'
# Print a Diamond
# Range of the diamond
num = int(input("Enter the range: \t "))
# pyramid
for p in range(num):
print(' '*(num-p-1)+'* '*(p+1))
# reverse pyramid
for rp in range(num-1, 0, -1):
print(' '*(num-rp)+'* '*rp)
Output
That’s it for this tutorial. Feel free to look at other pattern programs here or check out the programs on Algorithms here.
