Your task is to count how many ways can you place k queens on an n \times n chess board so that no two queens attack each other?
You may assume that 1 \le n \le 8 and that 1 \le k \le 3. Your solution should be efficient in all of these cases.
In a file queens.py
, implement a function count
that returns the desired count.
def count(n, k): # TODO if __name__ == "__main__": print(count(2, 1)) # 4 print(count(2, 2)) # 0 print(count(5, 3)) # 204 print(count(7, 1)) # 49 print(count(7, 2)) # 700 print(count(7, 3)) # 3628
