HackerEarth Rahuls Logo problem solution

In this HackerEarth Rahul’s Logo problem solution Rahul has set upon the quest for a new logo of his company. He has created the following continuous logo:

/ /

/ / /

/ /

However, his sister, Rashi, likes the following discontinuous design more

/ /

The size of a logo is the longest continuous streak of the same characters on an arm. So, the size of 1st logo is 5 while that of 2nd one is 4. Now, he wants to paint both of these logos on a canvas.

Given an integer N, write a program that outputs these logos for sizes N and N + 1, one below the other. Please note that Rahul’s logo is only valid for odd sizes and Rashi’s logo is only valid for even values.
