Since it's homework (you're honest about that; good!) I
think a hint may be of more value than a solution. Here's the
hint: Imagine that you were assigned to print
oooo*oooo
ooo***ooo
oo*****oo
o*******o
*********
o*******o
oo*****oo
ooo***ooo
oooo*oooo
instead. How would you go about it? If you solve this modified
problem, then replacing each "o" with a " " solves the original.
For extra credit (we call it "optimization"), try
oooo*
ooo***
oo*****
o*******
*********
o*******
oo*****
ooo***
oooo*
and see how you make out.
One further hint:
System.out.println ("\n");
prints the "\n" string, which usually ends the current line and
begins a new one. Next, it ends the current line and begins a
new one. How many new-and-begin operations is that?
