Here is the Turbo C program for Diamond Star Pattern using simple for loops.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <process.h>
#include <string.h>


void main()
{
    int i, j, k;
    int n = 0;
    printf("Program for displaying pattern of *.\n");
    printf("Enter the maximum number of *: ");
    scanf("%d", &n);

    printf("\nHere is the Diamond of Stars\n");

    for (i = 1; i <= n; i++)
    {
       for (j = 0; j < (n - i); j++)
          printf(" ");
       for (j = 1; j <= i; j++)
          printf("*");
       for (k = 1; k < i; k++)
          printf("*");
       printf("\n");
    }

    for (i = n - 1; i >= 1; i--)
    {
       for (j = 0; j < (n - i); j++)
          printf(" ");
       for (j = 1; j <= i; j++)
          printf("*");
       for (k = 1; k < i; k++)
          printf("*");
       printf("\n");
    } 
    
    printf("\n");
