This puzzle is rated 2 star (easy).

Description

I do like my vintage puzzles and here is another,,,

The humble chessboard is basically an 8 by 8 grid.  Many people refer to it as having 64 squares, but on an 8 by 8 grid I could very easily draw squares that are 2 by 2 and 3 by 3... even some that are larger!

Puzzle
In total, how many squares are there on a chessboard?
