The letter identifies the column; the number identifies the row. See the image below. You will provide the functions that allow us to determine: if a chessboard square is either black or white, given its coordinates. If the row/column is valid or not for the standard chessboard For example, if we pass in “d” for the column and 4 for the row, your function that determines color should return the string: “BLACK”. If we pass in "k" for the column to your function that validates columns, that function should return the boolean False. Requirements: Your function for validating the column should be able to accept upper or lowercase strings as parameters. Your functions for validating the row should be able to accept integers or strings as parameters. Your function that determines black-or-white may assume that the input has been validated prior to us calling…arrow_forward7. World Series Winners In this chapter's source code folder (available on the Computer Science Portal at www. pearsonhighered.com/gaddis), you will find a text file named WorldSeriesWinners. txt.

There are entries in the file indicating this.) Write a program that reads this file and creates a dictionary in which the keys are the names of the teams, and each key's associated value is the number of times the team has won the World Series. The program should also create a dictionary in which the keys are the years, and each key's associated value is the name of the team that won that year. The program should prompt the user for a year in the range of 1903 through 2009. It should then display the name of the…arrow_forward

The program will also the user to lookup the data for any given Container by number. The % cargo weight is the percentage of the cargo of the gross weight (cargo weight/gross weight), % total is the percentage of the cargo for that container of the total amount of cargo unloaded (cargo weight for the container / total cargo unloaded. Hint: you are expected to use methods for your calculations. The accompanying file has the data for the containers unloaded today. The data includes container number int ship name. String tare weight of the container (empty weight) int the gross weight (container plus the cargo). Int You will need to computer the cargo weight as the gross weight minus the tare weight.
