danieltian/EightQueens
C# project that finds all the possible positions that N queens on a N x N board can occupy such that no queen can attack another queen. Differentiates between unique solutions (any reflections and rotations count as only one) and distinct solutions (counts each reflection and rotation separately). The project is called EightQueens but can be changed to solve for any value of N by setting a variable, and it can easily be adapted to handle non-square boards by introducing a new variable. Will write the solution to a file called 'log.txt' on the user's desktop and display the runtime statistics in the console.

💡 Overview
EightQueens is an open-source project written in C#: C# project that finds all the possible positions that N queens on a N x N board can occupy such that no queen can attack another queen. Differentiates between unique solutions (any reflections and rotations count as only one) and distinct solutions (counts each reflection and rotation separately). The project is called EightQueens but can be changed to solve for any value of N by setting a variable, and it can easily be adapted to handle non-square boards by introducing a new variable. Will write the solution to a file called 'log.txt' on the user's desktop and display the runtime statistics in the console.
Engineered for speed, consistency, and developer ease, it solves common hurdles in C#. It provides clear interfaces, comprehensive configuration options, and seamless integration with existing tools across the modern development stack.
