# On a chessboard, positions are marked with letters between a and h for the column and a # number between 1 and 8 for the row. The first place on the board, a1, is black. The next # is white, alternating across a row. Odd rows start with black, even rows start with white. # Give a 2 character input string with a letter (a-h) and a number (1-8), print "Black" or # "White" indicating if the square is black or white. inputStr = 'b3' print("Black" if ( (inputStr[0] in ['a', 'c', 'e', 'g'] and int(inputStr[1]) % 2 == 1) or (inputStr[0] in ['b', 'd', 'f', 'h'] and int(inputStr[1]) % 2 == 0) ) else "White")
