pylon can be solved in two ways. O(r*c) make 2*n,3*n split few case will fail have to hard code them in my case 4*4,4*6,6*4,6*6 https://shashankmishracoder.wordpress.com/2019/04/13/google-code-jam-2019-round1a-pylon/

another way is to use dfs and backtracks for depth r*c O(r^2*c^2) https://shashankmishracoder.wordpress.com/2019/04/13/google-code-jam-2019-round-1a-pylon-dfs-and-backtracking-approach/
