    Let Z⩾0\mathbb{Z}_{\geqslant 0} be the set of non-negative integers, and let f:Z⩾0×Z⩾0→Z⩾0f: \mathbb{Z}_{\geqslant 0} \times \mathbb{Z}_{\geqslant 0} \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_{\geqslant 0} be a bijection such that whenever f(x1,y1)>f(x2,y2)f\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right)>f\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right), we have f(x1+1,y1)>f(x2+1,y2)f\left(x_{1}+1, y_{1}\right)>f\left(x_{2}+1, y_{2}\right) and f(x1,y1+1)>f(x2,y2+1)f\left(x_{1}, y_{1}+1\right)>f\left(x_{2}, y_{2}+1\right). Let NN be the number of pairs of integers (x,y)(x, y), with 0⩽x,y<1000 \leqslant x, y<100, such that f(x,y)f(x, y) is odd. Find the smallest and largest possible value of NN.
