<p>Given a <code>m&nbsp;* n</code>&nbsp;matrix <code>seats</code>&nbsp;&nbsp;that represent seats distributions&nbsp;in a classroom.&nbsp;If a seat&nbsp;is&nbsp;broken, it is denoted by <code>&#39;#&#39;</code> character otherwise it is denoted by a <code>&#39;.&#39;</code> character.</p>

<p>Students can see the answers of those sitting next to the left, right, upper left and upper right, but he cannot see the answers of the student sitting&nbsp;directly in front or behind him. Return the <strong>maximum </strong>number of students that can take the exam together&nbsp;without any cheating being possible.</p>

<p>Students must be placed in seats in good condition.</p>
