Create a window pattern with h-horizontal bars and v-vertical bars.

For example, for h=4,v=4

    '**********'
    '*  *  *  *'
    '*  *  *  *'
    '**********'
    '*  *  *  *'
    '*  *  *  *'
    '**********'
    '*  *  *  *'
    '*  *  *  *'
    '**********'

The bars should be proportionally placed. Also, the size would increase proportionally to the no of bars.

Check the test suites for clarity.

n.b. for this problem >> no of horizontal & vertical bars are kept equal.
