Yes, as Waffleboy said goto is basically no-no in anything other than assembly.

Not quite, it's taboo because it did a lot of harm before, specially on languages with half-assed labels, but with enough experience and on certain specific scenarios, using goto creates more readable code that better mirrors the algorithm they are implementing.

NOTE: If studying CS, don't even try it, even if you're good enough to pull it off cleanly, teachers will hang you... specially ones that where around at the time of the goto-inquisition tongue.gif

I know its only the first challenge, but I gotta start somewhere!
Code:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
        int amount = 0;
        int i;
        int b;
        cout << "Enter amount of asterisks you want to display (Must be greater than 0): ";
        cin >> amount;

        if (amount < 1)
        {
                cout << "Error, input is invalid. Reinitiate program.";
        }
        else 
        {
                for (i = 1; i <= amount; i++)
                {
                        for(b = 1; b <= i; b++)
                        {
                                cout<< "* ";
                                
                        }
                        cout << endl;
                }

                amount = amount - 1;

                for (i = amount; i > -1; i--)
                {
                        for(b = 1; b <= i; b++)
                        {
                                cout<< "* ";
                                
                        }
                        cout << endl;
                }
        }

        system("pause");
        return 0;
}

Does this look better to you?

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
Code:
void OCN1(int input){
    int i = input;
    string chr = "*";
    
    for(int p = 0; p < input; p++){
        cout << chr << endl;
        chr += "*";
    }
        
    for(int m = input; (m = input); i--){
        cout << chr << endl;
        chr.erase(i);
    }
}
