The product of these numbers is 26 × 63 × 78 × 14 = 1788696.

What is the greatest product of four adjacent numbers in the same direction (up, down, left, right, or diagonally) in a given arr grid?

--hints--

largestGridProduct(testGrid) should return a number.

assert(typeof largestGridProduct(testGrid) === 'number');

largestGridProduct(testGrid) should return 14169081.

assert.strictEqual(largestGridProduct(testGrid), 14169081);

largestGridProduct(grid) should return 70600674.

assert.strictEqual(largestGridProduct(grid), 70600674);
