There are a certain number of atoms hidden in a grid and you must fire X-rays from the side and according to the response (deviation, reflection, absorption). Find out the hidden atoms in the 8x8 grid using X-rays. X-rays interacts with atoms:

- white disk if reflected: input and output are the same. X-ray may be directly reflected by an atom on the edge of the grid.
