I need help with a checker board pattern

I have a code that lets the user input the size of the squares, the dimension of the pattern, and the two colors. The problem I am having is that I can not figure out how to properly have each square alternate between the colors and how to properly have all the squares in the dimension.
This is the code for the plot of the checkerboard pattern that I have so far:
N=4;
S=0;
theta=zeros(1,N);
for k=1:N
theta(k)=2*pi*(k-1)/N;
end
for m=1:D
x1=(R*cos(theta+pi/4)/sqrt(2))+S;
y1=(R*sin(theta+pi/4)/sqrt(2))+S;
plot(x1,y1);
fill(x1,y1,C1);
hold;
x2=(R*cos(theta+pi/4)/sqrt(2))+S;
y2=(R*sin(theta+pi/4)/sqrt(2));
plot(x2,y2);
fill(x2,y2,C2);
hold;
x3=(R*cos(theta+pi/4)/sqrt(2));
y3=(R*sin(theta+pi/4)/sqrt(2))+S;
plot(x3,y3);
fill(x3,y3,C2);
hold;
S=S+R;
end
R is the Size of the square
D is the Dimension Size
C1 and C2 are the colors
How would I go about fixing this code to make sure that I can satisfy all requirements?

Why not use the checkerboard() function?

checkerboard() creates an image. In my mind, and I think most people's minds, when we think of a checkerboard we think of an image, like if you were looking at a chessboard or checkerboard. Not sure what you mean by a plot. Can you show us what a plot might look like?
