Question 5. A knight on a chessboard can move one space horizontally (in either direction) and two spaces vertically (in either direction) or two spaces horizontally (in either direction) and one space vertically (in either direction). Suppose that we have an infinite chessboard, made up of all squares (m, n) where m and n are nonnegative integers. Use mathematical induction to show that a knight starting at (0,0) can visit every square using a finite sequence of moves. X X X X X X X X
