2r1r1k1/pp1bb2p/3pppp1/q6n/4P2Q/2N1BPP/PPP1BP2/2KR2R1 (white to move)

Start at a8 and work your way from left to right for each rank.
each / marks the end of a rank.

lowercase = black pieces, Uppercase = white.

In the above, there are 2 empty squares on rank 8 at a8 and b8 a black rook
on c8 followed by another empty square on d8, followed by a black rook at e8
another empty square at f8 then king on g8 followed by another empty square at
h8.

So from left to right are ranks 8 - 1.
Thanks.
