Array read by antidiagonals: T(m,n) (m>=1, n>=1) = number of cells in figure formed by taking m equally spaced points on a line and n equally spaced points on a parallel line, and joining each of the m points to each of the n points by a line segment.

COMMENTS
The case m=n (the main diagonal) is dealt with in A306302, where there are illustrations for m = 1 to 15.

FORMULA
Euler's formula implies that A335679[m,n] = A335678[m,n] + A335680[m,n] - 1 for all m,n.
Comment from Max Alekseyev, Jun 28 2020 (Start):
T(m,n) = A114999(m-1,n-1) + m*n - 1 for all m, n >= 1. This follows from the Alekseyev-Basova-Zolotykh (2015) article.
Proof: Here is the appropriate modification of the corresponding comment in A306302: Assuming that K(m,n) has vertices at (i,0) and (j,1), for i=0..m-1 and j=0..n-1, the projective map (x,y) -> ((1-y)/(x+1), y/(x+1)) maps K(m,n) to the partition of the right triangle described by Alekseyev et al. (2015), for which Theorem 13 gives the number of regions, line segments, and intersection points. (End)
Max Alekseyev's formula is an analog of Theorem 3 of Griffiths (2010), and gives an explicit formula for this array. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jun 30 2020)
