# --description--
|
|
|
|
Given a string for the location of a rook on a chess board, and another for the location of a bishop, determine if one piece can attack another.
|
|
|
|
A standard chessboard is 8x8, with columns labeled `A` through `H` (left to right) and rows labeled `1` through `8` (bottom to top). It looks like this:
|
|
|
|
|**A8**|**B8**|**C8**|**D8**|**E8**|**F8**|**G8**|**H8**|
|
|
|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|
|
|
|**A7**|**B7**|**C7**|**D7**|**E7**|**F7**|**G7**|**H7**|
|
|
|**A6**|**B6**|**C6**|**D6**|**E6**|**F6**|**G6**|**H6**|
|
|
|**A5**|**B5**|**C5**|**D5**|**E5**|**F5**|**G5**|**H5**|
|
|
|**A4**|**B4**|**C4**|**D4**|**E4**|**F4**|**G4**|**H4**|
|
|
|**A3**|**B3**|**C3**|**D3**|**E3**|**F3**|**G3**|**H3**|
|
|
|**A2**|**B2**|**C2**|**D2**|**E2**|**F2**|**G2**|**H2**|
|
|
|**A1**|**B1**|**C1**|**D1**|**E1**|**F1**|**G1**|**H1**|
|
|
|
|
- Rooks can move as many squares as they want in a horizontal or vertical direction.
|
|
- Bishops can move as many squares as they want in any diagonal direction.
|
|
- One piece can attack another if it can move to the location of that piece.
|
|
|
|
Return:
|
|
|
|
- `"rook"` if the rook can attack the bishop.
|
|
- `"bishop"` if the bishop can attack the rook.
|
|
- `"neither"` if neither piece can attack one another.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
`rook_bishop_attack("A1", "A5")` should return `"rook"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(rook_bishop_attack("A1", "A5"), "rook")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`rook_bishop_attack("C3", "F6")` should return `"bishop"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(rook_bishop_attack("C3", "F6"), "bishop")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`rook_bishop_attack("D4", "D7")` should return `"rook"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(rook_bishop_attack("D4", "D7"), "rook")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`rook_bishop_attack("B7", "H1")` should return `"bishop"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(rook_bishop_attack("B7", "H1"), "bishop")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`rook_bishop_attack("B3", "C5")` should return `"neither"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(rook_bishop_attack("B3", "C5"), "neither")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`rook_bishop_attack("G3", "E8")` should return `"neither"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(rook_bishop_attack("G3", "E8"), "neither")`)
|
|
}})
