If you like chess and/or Math and/or puzzles, here is a brain-teaser for you:


Imagine a regular chess board. You are allowed to paint any rank/file in the same color (i.e. make all the a-file, or 4-th rank white or black). By applying such tweaks, can you obtain a board that has just one dark square?

Certainly!
Method A)Paint ALL the ranks and files black and you will end up with 1 big black square. 
 
Method B) Paint B-H white, then paint ranks 2-8 white. A1 is black the remainder of the board is white. In this case I think I'd want the light square bishop.
