Meaning of the questions:
There is a N * N grid, the grid there are K obstructions. Do you have a weapon, every time you use the weapon can clear all the obstacles that particular row or column of the grid. You need at least ask how many times the weapon can clear all obstacles grid?
The minimum coverage problem, minimum coverage = maximum matching algorithm can be directly Hungary
