What is your problem with such a pettern? It should be trivial. Something in the line of: Make a loop (9 iterations); if iteration variable (say i=1,2,..9) is less than (or equal to) 5 then print out '*', i times; on the other hand, if i > 5 then print out '*', (10-i) times.
It is simple, isn't it?

While we are more than willing to help those that are stuck, that doesn't mean that we are here to do it all for you! We can't do all the work, you are either getting paid for this, or it's part of your grades and it wouldn't be at all fair for us to do it all for you.

So we need you to do the work, and we will help you when you get stuck. That doesn't mean we will give you a step by step solution you can hand in!
Start by explaining where you are at the moment, and what the next step in the process is. Then tell us what you have tried to get that next step working, and what happened when you did.

If you have - as you say - "solved some patterns problems" then it should be trivial: use the code for printing
