Right Arrow Pattern Program In Python

The program must accept an odd integer N as the input. The program must print the N lines containing hyphens and asterisks based on the following conditions.
– In the line 1, the program must print (N-1)/2 hyphens followed by an asterisk.
– In the line 2, the program must print (N-1)/2 + 1 hyphens followed by an asterisk.
– In the line 3, the program must print (N-1)/2 + 2 hyphens followed by an asterisk.
– Similarly, the program must print the first (N-1)/2 lines as the output.
– In the line (N+1)/2, the program must print N asterisks.
– In the line (N+1)/2 + 1, the program must print N-2 hyphens followed by an asterisk.
– In the line (N+1)/2 + 2, the program must print N-3 hyphens followed by an asterisk.
– In the line (N+1)/2 + 3, the program must print N-4 hyphens followed by an asterisk.
– Similarly, the program must the remaining lines as the output.

Boundary Condition(s):
5 <= N <= 99

Input Format:
The first line contains N.

Output Format:
The first N lines contain the hyphens and asterisk(s) based on the conditions.

Example Input/Output 1:
Input:
5

Output:
--*
---*
*****
---*
--*

Explanation:
Here N = 5.
The 1^st line contains (5-1)/2 hyphens and an asterisk.
--*
The 2^nd line contains (5-1)/2 + 1 hyphens and an asterisk.
---*
The 3^rd line contains 5 asterisks.
*****
The 4^th line contains (5-2) hyphens and an asterisk.
---*
The 5^th line contains (5-3) hyphens and an asterisk.
--*

Example Input/Output 2:
Input:
7

Output:
---*
----*
-----*
*******
-----*
----*
