Zigzag Array
Your function should create a list of lists, that represents a two-dimensional grid with the given number of rows and cols.
This grid should contain integers (int) from start to start + rows * cols - 1 in ascending order, but the elements of every odd-index row have to be listed in descending order, so that when read in ascending order, the numbers zigzag through the two-dimensional grid.
Input: Two integers (int) - rows and columns. One optional integer (int) - start.
Output: List of lists.
Examples:
assert create_zigzag(3, 5) == [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [10, 9, 8, 7, 6], [11, 12, 13, 14, 15]] assert create_zigzag(5, 1) == [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5]] assert create_zigzag(3, 3, 5) == [[5, 6, 7], [10, 9, 8], [11, 12, 13]]

Configure your tool
checkio --domain=py config --key=
Sync solutions into your local folder
checkio sync
(in beta testing) Launch local server so your browser can use it and sync solution between local file end extension on the fly. (doesn't work for safari)
checkio serv -d
Alternatevly, you can install Chrome extension or FF addon
