Question

The challenge

The shortest code by character count to output a spider web with rings equal to user’s input.

A spider web is started by reconstructing the center ring:

   \_|_/
  _/   \_
   \___/
   / | \

Then adding rings equal to the amount entered by the user. A ring is another level of a “spider circles” made from \ / | and _, and wraps the center circle.

Input is always guaranteed to be a single positive integer.

All whitespace is significant! If you accidently add a newline to the end there will be an extra _ at the end of the output
