Pseudocode:

Set outer to the value that should fill the box border.

FOR row in range 0 to 2*outer-1
    Set row_val to the absolute value of row - (outer-1)
    FOR col in range 0 to 2*outer-1
        Set col_val to the absolute value of col - (outer-1)
        Output the greater of col_val and row_val
    END FOR
    Ouput a newline
END FOR
