This project implements the initialization and visualization of a chessboard in console mode using the C++ programming language. The program creates a two-dimensional array of 8×8, which corresponds to a standard chessboard, and correctly places all pieces in their starting positions according to the classical rules of chess.
The code implements:
the creation and initialization of a fixed-size game board;
filling the board with empty cells;
placing all chess pieces for both sides:
rooks, knights, bishops, queen, and king;
pawns on the appropriate starting lines;
distinguishing sides using character case:
uppercase letters — white pieces;
lowercase letters — black pieces;
outputting the board in a readable format with row numbering (1–8) and column labeling (a–h), similar to chess notation.
