Challenge
Display to the screen or write to stdout this exactly:

Winning
This is code-golf, so the shortest submission (in bytes) wins.

\$\begingroup\$ My answer will be in PETSCII, which may therefore be non-competing. But I'll add it for fun anyway. \$\endgroup\$– Shaun BebbingtonNov 16 at 9:50

Desmos Graphing Calculator, 75 74 bytes
Display to the screen, eh?
a=[1...9]
b=0a-4
c=[-2...0]
(0a,a) **
(0a,a-3) ****
(b,c) ****
(-b,c) ****
Pasting that in directly will fail because the asterisks are actually part of the label.

1\$\begingroup\$ First of all, it's nice to see a Desmos golf by someone other than me once in a while, and I hope you stick around! Also, as for your actual code,
Label:does not need to be included in the byte count, but the asterisks should be contained in their own line to indicate a so-called "file boundary", as mentioned in this meta post on scoring Desmos code. In this case, the expression box of the label would be considered a different "file" than that of the point, so you need a file boundary. \$\endgroup\$ Nov 19 at 23:43 -
\$\begingroup\$ Also even with your current code, I am not entirely sure how you got 75 bytes. I'm getting 73 bytes. But regardless, there is the problem I mentioned above, and also the fact that
(0a,a)is only labelled with**, not****which is what you put in the code box. \$\endgroup\$ Nov 19 at 23:46 -
\$\begingroup\$ Also,
c=[-2...0]is shorter thanc=[1...3]-3by one byte. \$\endgroup\$ Nov 19 at 23:48 -
\$\begingroup\$ Implementing all my changes gives a final byte count of 74 bytes: Try It On Desmos! \$\endgroup\$ Nov 19 at 23:55
