Problem Statement

The numbers from 11 to 6464 are written on the squares of a chessboard (from 11 to 88 from left to right on the first row , from 99 to 1616 from left to right on the second row , and so on). Pluses are written before some of the numbers, and minuses are written before the remaining numbers in such a way that there are 44 pluses and 44 minuses in each row and in each column . Prove that the sum of the written numbers is equal to zero.
