Your code does not compile. Please correct your post (select the complete code and hit "preformatted" or use other markups).

h = '*.'
g = h*98 + '*'
t=int(raw_input())
if t>=1 and t<100:
    l,c = raw_input().split()
    l = int(l)
    c = int(c)
    if 1<=l<100 and 1<=c<100:
        for i in range(l):
            print g[0:c]

Is your code meant to look like this? Indentation is important for python programs! If yes, you still need to build a loop over the t test cases and some logic to print alternating lines.

yes,my code worked sometime back...Although I need to figure out using formatting while discussing code in forum

You can follow this hint. It works to use triple backticks 

```

on separate lines before and after your code. Although this character is quite unconvenient to produce on my german keyboard layout. Or you can use 

[code] ... [/code]

And I wish there would be a sticky post (again) in this forum for all the beginners asking their first question.
