LeetCode: Bomb Enemy

//  Given a 2D grid, each cell is either a wall 'W', an enemy 'E' or empty '0' (the number zero), return the maximum enemies you can kill using one bomb.
// The bomb kills all the enemies in the same row and column from the planted point until it hits the wall since the wall is too strong to be destroyed.
// Note that you can only put the bomb at an empty cell.

// Example:
// For the given grid

// 0 E 0 0
// E 0 W E
// 0 E 0 0

// return 3. (Placing a bomb at (1,1) kills 3 enemies)
