Given the dimensions of a 2-d plane, create a matrix where a "snake" of ones occupies the plane from top left to bottom right.
Example:
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
for m=7, n=10 the m will always be odd and >5 n will be >3

Please show me the unique full size snake in your example, several small snakes of 1s looked at me.

You need to change the function name to "your_fcn_name" instead of the default "plane" to get it to work with the test suite.

yeah, it depends on what your motivation is. If you want a low complexity, the puzzle is to match the test cases efficiently, but if you want low complexity and want to answer the problem, it adds a degree of difficulty. good solutions either way.
