    3648 - Minimum Sensors to Cover Grid.

    Medium

    You are given n × m grid and an integer k.

    A sensor placed on cell (r, c) covers all cells whose Chebyshev distance from (r, c) is at most k.

    The Chebyshev distance between two cells <code>(r<sub>1</sub>, c<sub>1</sub>)</code> and <code>(r<sub>2</sub>, c<sub>2</sub>)</code> is <code>max(|r<sub>1</sub> − r<sub>2</sub>|,|c<sub>1</sub> − c<sub>2</sub>|)</code>.

    Your task is to return the minimum number of sensors required to cover every cell of the grid.

    Example 1:

    Input: n = 5, m = 5, k = 1

    Output: 4

    Explanation:

    Placing sensors at positions (0, 3), (1, 0), (3, 3), and (4, 1) ensures every cell in the grid is covered. Thus, the answer is 4.

    Example 2:

    Input: n = 2, m = 2, k = 2

    Output: 1

    Explanation:

    With k = 2, a single sensor can cover the entire 2 * 2 grid regardless of its position. Thus, the answer is 1.

    Constraints:

    • <code>1 <= n <= 10<sup>3</sup></code>

    • <code>1 <= m <= 10<sup>3</sup></code>

    • <code>0 <= k <= 10<sup>3</sup></code>
