51. n-queens

admin 11月 11, 2020 0

The n-queens puzzle is the problem of placing n queens on an n×n chessboard such that no two queens attack each other.

Given an integer n, return all distinct solutions to the n-queens puzzle.

Each solution contains a distinct board configuration of the n-queens’ placement, where ‘Q’ and ‘.’ both indicate a queen and an empty space respectively.

For example,
There exist two distinct solutions to the 4-queens puzzle:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
 
[
 [".Q..",  // Solution 1
  "...Q",
  "Q...",
  "..Q."],
 ["..Q.",  // Solution 2
  "Q...",
  "...Q",
  ".Q.."]
]

解法1： DFS, O(N^N )

每一行有Ｎ个位置可以尝试，一共有Ｎ个行，不同的摆放方法是N^N
要注意的是在存储一个特定的摆放时，一个list就能解决问题。每一个元素对应的是每一行的列的位置。
比较直接的DFS的解法
