N2 - In this paper we consider the problem posed by Häggkvist on finding n × n arrays which are avoidable. An array is said to be avoidable if an n × n latin square on the same symbols can be found which differs from the given array in every cell. We describe a family of arrays, known as chessboard arrays, and classify these arrays as avoidable or non-avoidable.
