/**
 * GameCanvas_Chessboard is a fixed grid template designed for visualizing
 * games that are played on a chess board. It establishes the basic graphical
 * conventions for this class of games: an 8x8 board with alternating colors.
 * It also defines the coordinates-to-letters mapping that appears in several
 * chess board games, such as chess and checkers.
