Basically your P, and you need to get to D. But you have to hit every space, and you can only hit each space once. And you can only go horizontally or vertically. Good luck.

@jlb8soccer,
It's impossible based on parity. Color the 8x8 grid as a checkerboard. Assume you start on white. Your first move will take you to a black square. Your second move will take you to a white square. Odd numbered moves take you to a black square, and even numbered moves take you to a white square. It takes 63 moves to cover the board, so your last move is to a black square. However, you're required to end on a white square.

@markr,
If you haven't already read it, you'd probably enjoy the book "The Chess Mysteries of Sherlock Holmes" by Raymond Smullyan. Been a while since I read it, but problems included reasoning like this.
