Here comes question 1!
Exercise
Write a function count_near_positions() that takes two arguments:
checkers_positions– a list of all checker positions in a rectangle board during play (which are tuples(x, y)). Each tuple on the list corresponds to the consecutive checker's position during the game.treasure_position– the position (as a tuple) of a treasure on that game board.
Calculate how many times the checker's distance from the treasure was less than 2 during a game and return the result in your function. Here's how you can count the distance between the treasure with coordinates (x_1, y_1) and the checker with coordinates (x_2, y_2):
distance =|x_1 - x_2| + |y_1 - y_2|
Stuck? Here's a hint!
In your code, use the following condition:
if abs(x1 - x2) + abs(y1 - y2) < 2:
