# Instructions

The diamond kata takes as its input a letter, and outputs it in a diamond shape.
Given a letter, it prints a diamond starting with 'A', with the supplied letter at the widest point.

## Requirements

- The first row contains one 'A'.
- The last row contains one 'A'.
- All rows, except the first and last, have exactly two identical letters.
- All rows have as many trailing spaces as leading spaces. (This might be 0).
- The diamond is horizontally symmetric.
- The diamond is vertically symmetric.
- The diamond has a square shape (width equals height).
- The letters form a diamond shape.
- The top half has the letters in ascending order.
- The bottom half has the letters in descending order.
- The four corners (containing the spaces) are triangles.

## Examples

In the following examples, spaces are indicated by `·` characters.

Diamond for letter 'A':

```text
A
```

Diamond for letter 'C':

```text
··A··
·B·B·
C···C
·B·B·
··A··
```

Diamond for letter 'E':

```text
····A····
···B·B···
··C···C··
·D·····D·
E·······E
·D·····D·
··C···C··
···B·B···
····A····

Function Invoke-Diamond() {
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Given a letter, output a diamond shape.

.DESCRIPTION
Take a letter of the alphabet, return a string in a diamond shape starting with 'A', with the supplied letter at the widest point.
The output should use only capitalized letters, however the input should be case-insensitive.

.PARAMETER Letter
The letter used to decide the shape of the diamond.

.EXAMPLE
Invoke-Diamond -Letter D
Return:
@"
A
B B
C C
D D
C C
B B
A
"@

$space = ' ' * ([char]$Letter - [char]$l)

} else {
$mid = ' ' * (([char]$l - [char]'A') * 2 - 1)
return "${space}${l}${mid}${l}${space}"
}
}

$Diamond = [char]'A'..[char]$Letter + [char]($Letter-1)..[char]'A' | ForEach-Object {& $MakeLine $_}
