Minesweeper is a single-player game in which the player continuously selects different cells of an "m × n grid. each cell of the grid is either occupied by a bomb or is a safe cell. if a cell is occupied and the player selects the cell, the player loses. otherwise, the selected cell shows the number of bombs in the neighboring cells. a neighbor cell is a cell next to the current cell in the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal direction write a program that receives "m" and "n" as the number of rows and columns of the grid, respectively. in the second line, the user inputs an integer, "b", showing the number of bombs placed in the grid. it then follows by "b" lines of input from the user, each referring to the row and column index of each one of the bombs after receiving grid dimensions, the number of bombs, and bomb locations, you will need to display (print) the completed grid showing the bomb cells with and safe cells with the number of neighboring bombs to that cell.

it is a requirement to graduate high school where i live

the only way i would see could be an autoclicker type software. but that is very time consuming.
