Abstract

A detailed analysis of a classic backtracking problem, The Eight Queen Problem is presented. The paper addresses additional facets of the Eight Queen Problem that might be overlooked when casually generating a program solution. The author suggests that the extra time taken to fully analyze the problem will result in a better understanding of the problem which in turn will manifest itself in a better program solution.
