get random y coord - column

Find element within 5 nesting lists with 5 elements

OOOOO
OOOOO

OOOOO

Check [x][y] to see if a ship is already there

if not place a "2" to signify ship

x= 3
y= 2
board[3][2] =

OOOOO
OOOOO
OOO2O
OOOOO

if there is a ship there, get another random row and column

Afterwards get a random location NSWE

if location is for example north check the element north of the ships first location to make sure it is free, or it does't go out of index

If the location is free go to the element north of the last noted position and mark it with a "2"

if the location is not free, or out of bounds, generate another set of random coordinates and direction until a ship is placed.
