Chapter 6, Problem 6.26E

(Eight Queens) Another puzzler for chess buffs is the Eight Queens problem. Simply stated: Is it possible to place eight queens on an empty chessboard so that no queen is “attacking” any other—that is, so that no two queens are in the same row, the same column, or along the same diagonal? Use the kind of thinking developed in Exercise 6.24 to formulate a heuristic for solving the Eight Queens problem. Run your program. [Hint: It’s possible to assign a numeric value to each square of the chessboard indicating how many squares of an empty chessboard are “eliminated” once a queen is placed in that square. For example, each of the four corners would be assigned the value 22, as in Fig. 6.27.]

Once these “elimination numbers” are placed in all 64 squares, an appropriate heuristic might be: Place the next queen in the square with the smallest elimination number. Why is this strategy intuitively appealing?

Analyze the charts and introduce each charts by describing each. Identify the patterns in the given data. And determine how are the data points are related.   Refer to the raw data (table):
3A) Generate a hash table for the following values: 11, 9, 6, 28, 19, 46, 34, 14. Assume the table size is 9 and the primary hash function is h(k) = k % 9. i) Hash table using quadratic probing ii) Hash table with a secondary hash function of h2(k) = 7- (k%7) 3B) Demonstrate with a suitable example, any three possible ways to remove the keys and yet maintaining the properties of a B-Tree. 3C) Differentiate between Greedy and Dynamic Programming.
What are the charts (with their title name) that could be use to illustrate the data? Please give picture examples.
