Knight's Tours If you finish everything else, here's a fun little problem to work through. In chess, the knight piece moves in an L shape by moving two steps in one direction, then one step in a direction perpendicular to the initial direction. To the right is an image from Wikipedia showing a white and black knight piece and where those pieces can move. A knight's tour is a sequence of knight moves starting from some position on a chessboard that visits every square on the board exactly once. Many famous mathematicians and computer scientists – including Donald Knuth, one of the most influential computer scientists of all time – have studied the mathematical and computational properties of knight's tours, and now we'd like you to follow in their footsteps! Prove that there is no knight's tour that starts in the bottom-left corner of the board and ends in the upper-right corner of the board.
