The Chess module provides a framework for writing chess programs with Perl. This class forms part of that framework, representing a bishop in a the Chess::Game manpage.
new()
Constructs a new Chess::Piece::Queen. Requires two scalar parameters containing the initial square and color of the piece. Optionally takes a third parameter containing a description of the piece.
There are no class methods for this class.
can_reach()
Overrides base class version. Returns a list of squares that this pawn can reach from its current position. See reachable_squares() in the Chess::Piece manpage for more details on this method.
This module produces no warning messages. See DIAGNOSTICS in Chess::Board or DIAGNOSTICS in Chess::Piece for possible errors or warnings the program may produce.
