int main() 
{ 
	ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false);
   	cin.tie(NULL);
   	cout.tie(NULL);
   	int t;
   	cin>>t;
   	while(t--){
   		int n,x=1;
   		cin>>n;
   		for(int i=1;i<=n;i++){
   			for(int j=1;j<=x;j++){
   				if(j==1||j==x)cout<<"*";
   				else cout<<" ";
   			}
   			cout<<"\n";
   			if(i<=n/2)x++;
   			else x--;
   		}
   	}
