This is the solution to Chessboard Challenge 1 & 2 https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/781413615/ https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/782122514/ If the intro is too long for you, you can skip it by clicking/tapping.
- - - Notes - - - My aim with this project was to explain the solutions so that anyone can understand them.

I thought it would be fun to make it in BeepBox without listening to the original first. The Nicomachus theorem illustration is by the Wikipedia user Cmglee: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nicomachus_theorem_3D.svg The ending music is by me. Its title is Rec Tangle, and I made it in BeepBox, using square waves :) The ending chessboard photo is by De an Sun on Unsplash: https://unsplash.com/@andyadcon
