  2. Eight queens puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_queens_puzzle

    Nauck also extended the puzzle to the n queens problem, with n queens on a chessboard of n×n squares. Since then, many mathematicians, including Carl Friedrich Gauss, have worked on both the eight queens puzzle and its generalized n-queens version. In 1874, S. Günther proposed a method using determinants to find solutions. [1]

  3. Min-conflicts algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min-conflicts_algorithm

    Min-Conflicts solves the N-Queens Problem by selecting a column from the chess board for queen reassignment. The algorithm searches each potential move for the number of conflicts (number of attacking queens), shown in each square. The algorithm moves the queen to the square with the minimum number of conflicts, breaking ties randomly.

  4. Backtracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backtracking

    For this class of problems, the instance data P would be the integers m and n, and the predicate F. In a typical backtracking solution to this problem, one could define a partial candidate as a list of integers c = (c[1], c[2], …, c[k]), for any k between 0 and n, that are to be assigned to the first k variables x[1], x[2], …, x[k]. The ...

    Algorithm X is a recursive, nondeterministic, depth-first, backtracking algorithm that finds all solutions to the exact cover problem. Some of the better-known exact cover problems include tiling , the n queens problem , and Sudoku .

    There is no polynomial f(n) that gives the number of solutions of the n-Queens Problem. Zaslav 04:39, 12 March 2014 (UTC) I believe that paper provides an algorithm to find a solution to an N-queens problem for large N, not to calculate the number of solutions. Jibal 10:17, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

    Higher levels of omega-6 fatty acids often found in ultraprocessed foods may interfere with the immune system’s fight against cancer cells, a new study says.

  8. Mathematical chess problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_chess_problem

    The most famous problem of this type is the eight queens puzzle. Problems are further extended by asking how many possible solutions exist. Further generalizations apply the problem to NxN boards. [3] [4] An 8×8 chessboard can have 16 independent kings, 8 independent queens, 8 independent rooks, 14 independent bishops, or 32 independent ...

  9. Brute-force search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brute-force_search

    A brute-force algorithm that finds the divisors of a natural number n would enumerate all integers from 1 to n, and check whether each of them divides n without remainder. A brute-force approach for the eight queens puzzle would examine all possible arrangements of 8 pieces on the 64-square chessboard and for each arrangement, check whether ...
