Running

Before running, ensure that you have node v10.16 or greater installed and npm v6.11 (certain features won't work with lesser versions of node, namely the console.table function calls)

Once installed, navigate to the directory and run: node index.js, then continue to follow on screen steps.

Adding new points or changing grid size

You cannot add new points to the grid or change the size of the grid without changing the source code, but this is quite straight forward.

To generate a table of size n, open index.js, and add in your number in the call to generateGrid(n).

To add more points, call (inside of index.js):

insertCell(x,y,grid) where x and y are the x and y coordinates of the new point and grid is the reference to the grid you generated above.
