-- Starting at the top-left corner of your map and following a slope of right 3
-- and down 1, how many trees would you encounter?

-- Requirements for this first task:
-- - datastructure supporting random-access (or similar) interface (lists would work)
-- - function generating a list of (x,y) coordinate to check
-- - must have 2D datastructure, since it's infinite on 1D (x axis)
-- - in this version at least, there's no need to modify the datastructure, so
--   it can be read-only, or even just a function taking a position and returning
--   SquareSortEmpty or SquareSortTree
