In this tutorial you will learn about the C Program to Print Hollow Rhombus Star Pattern and its application with practical example.
C program to Print Hollow Rhombus Star Pattern
In this tutorial, we will learn to create a C program that will print a Hollow Rhombus Star Pattern in C programming.
Prerequisites
Before starting with this tutorial, we assume that you are the best aware of the following C programming topics:
- Operators in C Programming.
- Basic Input and Output function in C Programming.
- Basic C programming.
- For loop in C programming.
- Conditional Statements in C programming.
What is Hollow Rhombus?
The Rhombus is a four-sided shape in geometry. The Rhombus is a quadrilateral shape that has all four sides of the same length. And the hollow rhombus is empty from inside only borders are printed.

1. Declaring the required variables for the program. 2. Taking the input number of rows from the user. 3. Generating the pattern using the nested for loop. 4. Printing the Hollow <strong>Rhombus</strong> Shape star pattern. 5. End the program. |
Program description Printing Hollow Rhombus:-
In this program, we will first take the input number of rows by the user. Then we will pass that input size to the nested for loop to draw the Hollow Rhombus pattern using the C programming language.
Printing the Hollow Rhombus pattern filled with stars. Let’s take the below example for the problem.

/** * C program to print hollow rhombus star pattern */ #include <stdio.h> int main() { //declaring the required variables for the program. int i, j, rw; //i = it will hold the integer value //j = it will hold the integer value //rw = it will hold the integer value //taking the input side for the Rhombus printf("Enter the number of rows = "); scanf("%u",&rw); //Generating the pattern of the hollow Rhombus for(i=1; i<=rw; i++) { /* Print trailing spaces */ for(j=1; j<=rw-i; j++) { printf(" "); } /* Print stars and center spaces */ for(j=1; j<=rw; j++) { // Print stars for the holol Rhombus if(i==1 || i==rw || j==1 || j==rw) printf("*"); else printf(" "); } printf("\n"); } return 0; } |
Output:-
In the above program, we have first initialized the required variable.
- rw = it will hold the integer value for the input.
- i = it will hold the integer value.
- j = it will hold the integer value.
Input the number of rows for the Hollow Rhombus.
