It's quite plausible that a windows user like you might be dazzled at
the idea of a .tar.gz.
I suggest just using "pip install beautifu

After some effort I'm pretty confident that the hacky way is impossible.

Python 3 gained syntax for keyword-only arguments.
Try "foo(1)" and it will fail -- "bar" needs to be gi

Or about 10**10**6.255 (so about 1.80M digits long).
For the unicode side (Python 3, in other words) and reusing your math
(ya better hope it's right!), you are talking:
97812*((97812+2020)**100 - 1)/(97812+2020-1)

Just a minor suggestion:
def display_board(board):
print ' a b c d e f g h'
print '+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+'
for row in range(8):
for col in range(8):
piece = board[row * 8 + col]
if piece_type[piece] == WHITE:
