	Eight queens puzzle (C) - LiteratePrograms
		The eight queens problem is the problem of placing eight queens on an 8×8 chessboard such that none of them attack one another (no two are in the same row, column, or diagonal).
		When resetting a queen that has passed off the bottom of the board, it is placed in the position after the previous queen, after the previous queen has itself been moved.
		The answer is that a set of queens with no two in the same row or column correspond to the mathematical concept of a permutation or reordering of the first n integers.

		The eight queens puzzle is the problem of putting eight chess queens on an 8x8 chessboard such that none of them is able to capture any other using the standard chess queen's moves.
		The eight queens problem has 92 distinct solutions, or 12 distinct solutions if symmetry operations such as rotations and reflections of the board are taken into consideration.
		The eight queens puzzle is a good example of a simple but non-trivial problem that can be solved by a recursive algorithm, by phrasing the n-queen problem inductively in terms of adding a single queen to any solution to the (n-1)-queen problem.

	Puzzle Playground - The Treasure at Medinet Solution
		Actually, it was one of many puzzles based on the problem known as "the problem of the eight queens".
		First proposed by Max Bezzel in 1848, general idea of this problem is to place the largest number of queens on a chess board so that no two queens are in the same row, column or diagonal.
		Later it was proved that on a standard 8x8 chess board exactly eight queens can be placed so that no two queens attack each other.

		Example: in the eight queens puzzle, if the eight queens are considered to be distinct, there are 3 709 440 distinct solutions.
		Normally however, the queens are considered to be identical, and one says "there are 92 (= 3709440/8!) unique solutions up to permutations of the queens", signifying that two different arrangements of the queens are considered equivalent if the queens have been permuted, but the same squares on the chessboard are occupied by them.
		If, in addition to treating the queens as identical, rotations and reflections of the board were allowed, we would have only 12 distinct solutions up to symmetry, signifying that two arrangements that are symmetrical to each other are considered equivalent.

		The eight queens puzzle is the problem of putting eight chess queenss on an 8×8 chessboard such that none of them is able to capture any other using the standard chess queen's moves.
		Most often, it is used as an example of a problem which can be solved with a recursive algorithm, by phrasing the n queens problem inductively in terms of adding a single queen to any solution to the n−1 queens problem.
		The 'minimum-conflicts' heuristic—moving the piece with the largest number of conflicts to the square in the same column where the number of conflicts is smallest—is particularly effective: it solves the 1,000,000 queen problem in less than 50 steps on average.

		Years ago in high school, I first tried solving the "8 Queens Problem", which is in some ways similar to the problem of creating a Sudoku grid.
		If you're not familiar with the Eight Queens problem, it asks the question, "Can 8 queens be placed on a standard chessboard in such a way that none of the queens can capture one of the other queens?"
		My attempt to solve the Eight Queens problem was written with an erroneous infinite loop, and brought the department computer down, as well as probably wasting loads of paper.
