Abstract

The n-queens problem is to determine in how many ways n queens may be placed on an n-by- n chessboard so that no two queens attack each other under the rules of chess. We describe a simple O(ƒ( n)8 n ) solution to this problem that is based on dynamic programming, where ƒ( n) is a low-order polynomial. This appears to be the first nontrivial upper bound for the problem.
