A diamond made out of text? I would use two for loops, one for the getting bigger part (tip to the middle), and one for getting smaller. Then each if those will need two loops inside.

// tip to middle
for (?) {
   for (?)
      cout << " ";
   cout << "/";
   for (?)
      cout << " ";
   cout << "\";
}

win 32 console app, remember you will need to use two \ because it's special in a string, ( like \n for newline )

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

	cout << " . " << endl;
	cout << "/ \\ " << endl;
	cout << "\\ / " << endl;
	cout << " ` " << endl;
return 0;
}


I don't think using a for loop would help
