CODE FOR M
class a
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int i,j;
for(i=1;i<=5;i++)
{
for(j=1;j<=5;j++)
{
 
if(j==1 || j==5)
System.out.print("*");
else if(i==2 && (j==2 || j==4))
System.out.print("*");
else if(i==3 && j==3)
System.out.print("*");
else 
System.out.print(" ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
}
