 In chess, each move of a knight consists of moving by two squares
horizontally and one square vertically, or by one square horizontally
and two squares vertically. A knight making one move from location (0,0) of an
infinite chess board would end up at one of the following eight locations:
(1,2), 
(-1,2), 
(1,-2), 
(-1,-2), 
(2,1),
(-2,1),
(2,-1),
(-2,-1).
