Domino tiling count

CodingAlgorithms & data structuresSenior–Staff~40 min

Count the number of ways to tile an m x n grid completely with 1x2 dominoes (each domino covers two orthogonally adjacent cells, placed horizontally or vertically, no overlaps, no gaps). Return the exact count. The smaller dimension is small (min(m,n) up to ~10); return 0 when m*n is odd.

Implement
domino_tilings(m: int, n: int) → int

What a strong answer looks like

State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
