6. ZigZag Conversion

 The string "PAYPALISHIRING" is written in a zigzag pattern on a given number of rows like this: (you may want to display this pattern in a fixed font for better legibility)

P   A   H   N
A P L S I I G
Y   I   R

And then read line by line: "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR"

Write the code that will take a string and make this conversion given a number of rows:

string convert(string text, int nRows);

convert("PAYPALISHIRING", 3) should return "PAHNAPLSIIGYIR". 

通过画图找规律

/**
  由规律来看

  第i排开始的数下标是i;
  第一排和最后一排 的间距为 2*(N-1);
  其他排的间距为 分别是2*(m-i) 2*(i-1)
