# INTRODUCTION #

print "\n\n This program makes a grid of squares, gradually changing from one colour to another. You can use this pattern for cross stitch, knitting, or any other craft. The pattern will be a .csv file, which you can open in Excel or any other spreadsheet program."

print "\n\n >> For row and stitch numbers, just type a number ('40' not '40 rows' or 'forty')."
print "\n\n >> For Output File, type a word and do not use any punctuation. The file will overwrite any other files with this name in the folder, so doublecheck before you run the program. The finished file will be saved in the same folder as the gradientmaker.rb program".center(10)

#TEST
##A square		YES

##Rectangle: longer than wide	ALL YES
	# both numbers even			
	# both numbers odd			
	# A odd, B even				
	# A even, B odd				
	
##Rectangle: wider than long	ALL YES
	# both numbers even
	# both numbers odd
	# A odd, B even
	# A even, B odd
	
# Catch wrong number inputs


# NOW OPEN IN EXCEL - ADD CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

# 0. highlight and copy the white square
# 1. highlight whole document
# 2. go to conditional formatting
# 3. paste white square, and choose a colour
# 4. document will now show colours graphically
# 5. repeat with black square
# 6. save file as a different format (NOT a .csv)
