   I wish I could post about the stuff I witness at [current workplace] because this would make so many people on here stop having impostor syndrome

     Helene's square test was already a perfect proof of this with junior devs, but I get to witness this with more experience people too on a frequent basis

     @rin Using any language of your choice, in 10 minutes max, draw an empty square of a variable size, its size defined by a given parameter (let's call it "size")
     
     So if I give your code a size of 3, it should display
     ***
     * *

     @steffo @rin @solidsanek Plus well it's the kind of exercise you can adapt a bit, like drawing a triangle instead of a square seems about as hard.
     Or heck, variable-sized tri-force :D
