How to make a diamond using Nested For Loops

Question

So I was assigned to make a diamond with asterisks in Java and I\'m really stumped. Here\'s what I\'ve come up with so far:

public class Lab1 
{
   public s

package practice;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Practice {


    public static void main(String[] args) {

    for(int i=0;i<=10;i++)
    {
        if(i<=5)
        {
        for(int k=1;k<=5-i;k++)
        {
            System.out.print(" ");
        }
        for(int j=0;j<=i;j++)
        {
            System.out.print(" *");
        }
        }
        if(i>5)
        {
        for(int k=0;k<=i-6;k++)
        {
            System.out.print(" ");
        }
        for(int j=0;j<=10-i;j++)
        {
            System.out.print(" *");
        }
        }
        System.out.println();
    }
    }

}
