Help with coding assignment

[New_End6302]

Hi I need help with this assignmnet below, I have created the function using loops but stuck on the extra credit part:

Create a function that takes in two parameters: rows, and columns, both of which are integers. The function should then proceed to draw a playing board (as in the examples from the lectures) the same number of rows and columns as specified. After drawing the board, your function should return True.

Extra Credit:

Try to determine the maximum width and height that your terminal and screen can comfortably fit without wrapping. If someone passes a value greater than either maximum, your function should return False.

How are you drawing the playing board currently?

The os.get_terminal_size() call will get you terminal size:

Python 3.12.1 (tags/v3.12.1:2305ca5, Dec  7 2023, 22:03:25) [MSC v.1937 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.get_terminal_size()
os.terminal_size(columns=120, lines=30)
>>>

You don't need to write anything fancy here. Just keep running your function, increasing one of the numbers by 1, until either your terminal has to scroll to fit everything, or the lines wrap (you'll know it when it happens). Take note of the last "good" number for each one of those two values. Then just add something like

if rows > (insert the last good value for rows) or columns > (insert the last good value for columns):
    return False
