I'm trying to write a function that will generate a NxN matrix that has the value K on both diagonals, while the values outside the diagonals (up and down) are 1's (for conflicting positions such as [4,5] and [5,4] the larger value is written in the matrix). Basically, I'm trying to replicate this matrix (where N = 8 and K = 5):

5  1  0  0  0  0  1  5
1  5  1  0  0  1  5  1
0  1  5  1  1  5  1  0
0  0  1  5  5  1  0  0
0  0  1  5  5  1  0  0
0  1  5  1  1  5  1  0
1  5  1  0  0  1  5  1
5  1  0  0  0  0  1  5

Any ideas? Thank you!
