The chessboard is made up of eight rows and eight columns for a total of 64 squares of
alternating colors. Each square of the chessboard is identified with a unique pair of a
letter and a number. The vertical files are labeled a through h, from White´s left (i.e. the
queenside) to White´s right. Similarly, the horizontal ranks are numbered from 1 to 8,
starting from the one nearest White´s side of the board. Each square of the board, then,
is uniquely identified by its file letter and rank number. In the initial position setup, the
light queen is positioned on a light square and the dark queen is situated on a dark
square. The diagram below shows how the pieces should be initially situated.
