+ *
+ * You are given coordinates, a string that represents the coordinates of a square of the chessboard. 
+ * Below is a chessboard for your reference.
+ * 
+ * Return true if the square is white, and false if the square is black.
+ * 
+ * The coordinate will always represent a valid chessboard square. The coordinate will always have the 
+ * letter first, and the number second.
+ * 
+ * Example 1:
+ * 
+ * Input: coordinates = "a1"
+ * Output: false
+ * Explanation: From the chessboard above, the square with coordinates "a1" is black, so return false.
+ * 
+ * Example 2:
+ * 
+ * Input: coordinates = "h3"
+ * Output: true
+ * Explanation: From the chessboard above, the square with coordinates "h3" is white, so return true.
+ * 
+ * Example 3:
+ * 
+ * Input: coordinates = "c7"
+ * Output: false
+ * 
+ * Constraints:
+ * 
+ * 	coordinates.length == 2
+ * 	'a' <= coordinates[0] <= 'h'
+ * 	'1' <= coordinates[1] <= '8'
