Write a program that prints the numbers from 1 to 100. But for multiples of three print “Fizz” instead of the number and for the multiples of five print “Buzz”. For numbers which are multiples of both three and five print “FizzBuzz”. Details: Your solution should be runnable and demonstrate the output. Focus on clean, readable code. Consider edge cases and error handling (though not strictly required for this basic version). Provide a brief explanation of your approach and any assumptions you made. Example: 1 2 Fizz 4 Buzz Fizz 7 8 Fizz Buzz 11 Fizz 13 14 FizzBuzz ... Variations (optional, for a more challenging exercise): Allow the user to input the upper limit of the range (instead of always going to 100). Allow the user to input the numbers to use for Fizz and Buzz (instead of always using 3 and 5). Allow the user to input the words to use for Fizz and Buzz (instead of always using Fizz and Buzz). Handle invalid inputs gracefully. This question assesses a candidate's basic programming skills, understanding of loops and conditional statements, and ability to write clean, understandable code. The variations allow for exploring error handling, input validation, and more flexible program design.

Design a Chess Board using Object-Oriented principles. Consider the classes, their attributes, and methods. Focus on the core components like the board, pieces, and interactions between them. For example, how would you represent the different chess pieces (pawn, rook, knight, etc.) and their unique movement rules? How would you handle the logic for checking if a move is valid, including considering piece-specific constraints and checking for checkmate or stalemate scenarios? Illustrate with code snippets to showcase how these objects would interact. How will you handle special moves like castling and en passant? How would you keep track of the game state and handle turn management?
