Diagonal Line Across a Table Without Splitting
I am new to latex and I need to create something as shown in the picture.
So far this is what i can create. Please keep the code simple
begin{center}
begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}hline
$ star $ & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4\ hline
1 & 4 & 3 & 2 & 1\ hline
2 & 3 & 1 & 4 & 2\ hline
3 & 2 & 4 & 1 & 3\ hline
4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4\ hline
end{tabular}
end{center}

just a question. Can i tweak this to draw a: vertical line across column 5 and a horizontal line across row 5 instead of the diagonal line, so i can use it in my next example. also the horizontal and vertical lines should start from the second element ie not include the top row and left column

@SamBluez Would you mind asking a separate, i.e. new question for that? ( I am going to bed and there are so many experts around who will help you.)
