Let n be a positive integer. Find the greatest possible integer m, in terms of n, with the following property: a table with m rows and n columns can be filled with real numbers in such a manner that for any two different rows [a1,a2,…,an] and [b1,b2,…,bn] the following holds: max(∣a1−b1∣,∣a2−b2∣,...,∣an−bn∣)=1
