- I realize this might be just a little off the topic (but hopefully not too
- much). I would very much like to find some source code for the Knight's Tour
- problem. This is the problem where you have a lone knight on a chess board and
- the goal is to have your knight visit all of the squares on the board and
- return to his starting place without visiting any square twice.
-
- I would especially be interested in C source code that solves our knight's
- dilema, either from an ftp site, book, etc.
-
- If anyone knows of any repositories of source code to solve these sorts of
- problems (Knights Tour, N-Queens problem, etc.) I would appreciate any tips.
- I generally enjoy these sorts of computing problems so anyone who knows of
- any interesting variations on the Knight's Tour or N-Queens problem etc.
- I would sure like to hear about them.
