#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int size = 7, mid = (size / 2) + 1;
for(int i = 1; i <= size; i++)
{
for(int j = 1; j <= (size + 1); j++)
{
if(((i == (mid - 1)) && (j == (size + 1))) || ((i == (mid + 1)) && (j == 1)))
cout << " ";
else if(i == 1 || i == size || j == 1 || j == (size + 1) || i == mid)
cout << "*";
else
cout << " ";
}
cout << endl;
}
return 0;
}

The value must be odd for perfect shape and minimum odd number you can enter is 7.
