62. Unique Paths

A robot is located at the top-left corner of a m x n grid (marked ‘Start‘ in the diagram below).
The robot can only move either down or right at any point in time. The robot is trying to reach the bottom-right corner of the grid (marked ‘Finish‘ in the diagram below).
How many possible unique paths are there?
?
?Above is a 7 x 3 grid. How many possible unique paths are there?




Dp : space and time are m * n

        // return the last number filled in this matrix
