JAVA I will be testing through eclipse

Question: Triangle Pattern
public static void triangle(int m, int n)
// Precondition: m <= n
// Postcondition: The method has printed a pattern of 2*(n-m+1) lines
// to the standard output. The first line contains m asterisks, the next
// line contains m+1 asterisks, and so on up to a line with n asterisks.
// Then the pattern is repeated backwards, going n back down to m.
/* Example output:
triangle(3, 5) will print this:
***
****
*****
*****
****
***
*/
