%e A049451 For an N x N Minesweeper grid the highest sum of numbers is (N-1)(3*N-2). This is achieved by filling every second row with mines (shown as 'X'). For example, when N=5 the best grids are:

%e A049451   X X X X X
%e A049451   4 6 6 6 4
%e A049451   X X X X X
%e A049451   4 6 6 6 4
%e A049451   X X X X X
%e A049451 .
