n-queens

Response

The N-Queens program typically took over 10000 iterations for 8 queens.

This was the case until I switched it to 5 queens, in which the average was 7000

Prerequisites

In order to compile the project, simply run these two commands:

cmake -B build -S .
cmake --build build

The program should now be compiled at ./build/bin/n_queens

Simply run the program using:

build/bin/n_queens

The program's default board size is 4

To change the board size use:

build/bin/n_queens NUMBER_OF_QUEENS

Example:

build/bin/n_queens 8
