Queen Problem
Minimum queens required
to cover all the squares of
a chess board
The N queens puzzle is the problem of placing
N chess queens on an N×N chessboard so that no two
queens threaten each other. Thus, a solution requires
that no two queens share the same row, column, or
diagonal.
The backtracking Algorithm for N-Queen is already
discussed here. In a backtracking solution, we backtrack
when we hit a dead end. In Branch and Bound solution,
after building a partial solution, we figure out that
there is no point going any deeper as we are going to
hit a dead end.
Let’s begin by describing the backtracking solution. “The
idea is to place queens one by one in different columns,
starting from the leftmost column. When we place a

queen in a column, we check for clashes with already
placed queens. In the current column, if we find a row for
which there is no clash, we mark this row and column as
part of the solution. If we do not find such a row due to
clashes, then we backtrack and return false.”

3. Placing 1st queen on (3, 0) and 2nd queen on (5, 1)
1. For the 1st Queen, there are total 8 possibilities as we
can place 1st Queen in any row of first column. Let’s
place Queen 1 on row 3.
2. After placing 1st Queen, there are 7 possibilities left
for the 2nd Queen. But wait, we don’t really have 7
possibilities. We cannot place Queen 2 on rows 2, 3
or 4 as those cells are under attack from Queen 1. So,
Queen 2 has only 8 – 3 = 5 valid positions left.
3. After picking a position for Queen 2, Queen 3 has
even fewer options as most of the cells in its column
are under attack from the first 2 Queens.
We need to figure out an efficient way of keeping track of
which cells are under attack. In previous solution we kept

4. an 8
-by
-8 Boolean matrix and update it each time we
placed a queen, but that required linear time to update
as we need to check for safe cells.
Basically, we have to ensure 4 things:
1. No two queens share a column.
2. No two queens share a row.
3. No two queens share a top-right to left-bottom
diagonal.
4. No two queens share a top-left to bottom-right
diagonal.
Number 1 is automatic because of the way we store the
solution. For number 2, 3 and 4, we can perform updates
in O(1) time. The idea is to keep three Boolean arrays
that tell us which rows and which diagonals are
occupied.
Lets do some pre-processing first. Let’s create two N x N
matrix one for / diagonal and other one for diagonal.
Let’s call them slashCode and backslashCode
respectively. The trick is to fill them in such a way that
two queens sharing a same /
diagonal will have the same
value in matrix slashCode, and if they share same
-
diagonal, they will have the same value in
backslashCode matrix.
For an N x N matrix, fill slashCode and backslashCode

slashCode[row][col] = row + col
backslashCode[row][col] = row – col + (N-1)
Using above formula will result in below matrices

6. The ‘N – 1’ in the backslash code is there to ensure that
the codes are never negative because we will be using
the codes as indices in an array.
Now before we place queen i on row j, we first check
whether row j is used (use an array to store row info).
Then we check whether slash code ( j + i ) or backslash
code ( j – i + 7 ) are used (keep two arrays that will tell us
which diagonals are occupied). If yes, then we have to try
a different location for queen i. If not, then we mark the
row and the two diagonals as used and recurse on queen
i + 1. After the recursive call returns and before we try
another position for queen i, we need to reset the row,

30. The time and space complexity of the N-Queen
problem solver implemented in the provided code are:
Time Complexity: The time complexity of the solver
algorithm is O(N!), where N is the number of rows and
columns in the square board. This is because for each
column, the algorithm tries to place a queen in each row
and then recursively tries to place the queens in the
remaining columns. The number of possible
combinations of queen placements in the board is N!
since there can be only one queen in each row and each
column.
Space Complexity: The space complexity of the solver
algorithm is O(N^2), where N is the number of rows and
columns in the square board. This is because we are
using a 2D vector to represent the board, which takes up
N^2 space. Additionally, we are using three boolean
arrays to keep track of the occupied rows and diagonals,
which take up 2N-1 space each. Therefore, the total
space complexity is O(N^2 + 6N – 3), which is equivalent
to O(N^2).
