# --description--
|

|
||
A square piece of paper with integer dimensions N×N is placed with a corner at the origin and two of its sides along the x- and y-axes. Then, we cut it up respecting the following rules:
|
||
|
||
We only make straight cuts between two points lying on different sides of the square, and having integer coordinates.
|
||
|
||
Two cuts cannot cross, but several cuts can meet at the same border point.
|
||
|
||
Proceed until no more legal cuts can be made.
|
||
|
||
Counting any reflections or rotations as distinct, we call C(N) the number of ways to cut an N×N square. For example, C(1) = 2 and C(2) = 30 (shown below).
|
||
|
||
What is C(30) mod 108 ?

`euler270()` should return 82282080.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert.strictEqual(euler270(), 82282080);
|
||
```
