if (letter == 'a')
{
xCoordinate = 0;
}

{
xCoordinate = 1;

{
xCoordinate = 2;
}
else if (letter == 'd')
{
xCoordinate = 3;
}
else if (letter == 'e')
{
xCoordinate = 4;

xCoordinate = 6;
}
else if (letter == 'h')
{
xCoordinate = 7;
}
else if (letter == 'i')
{
xCoordinate = 8;
}
else
{
xCoordinate = 9;
}
