In this paper, an example is given to describe the method of solving n queen problem based on backtracking algorithm in PHP. Share it for your reference, as follows:

Here for n queen problem will not do too much introduction, related introduction and algorithm analysis can refer to the previous 1 C + + based on backtracking method to solve the 8 queen problem.

The basic method of backtracking is search, or an exhaustive search method that is well organized and can avoid unnecessary search. This method is suitable for solving some problems with considerable combination number.

In the solution space tree of the problem, the backtracking method searches the solution space tree from the root node according to the depth first strategy. When the algorithm searches to any point in the solution space tree, it first judges whether the node contains the solution of the problem. If it is definitely not included, skip the search for the subtree whose node is the root and trace back to its ancestor node layer by layer; Otherwise, enter the subtree and continue searching according to the depth first strategy.

The guiding ideology of retrospective method-if you can't get through, you will turn around. Design process: Determine the solution space of the problem; Determine the expansion rules of nodes; Search.

Here we mainly show how to implement this problem with php

$tres for 1 doable attempt
$res record total results

<?php
//check is valid now
function check($l,$c){
   global $tres;
   global $res;
   global $n,$count;
   foreach($tres as $key=>$value){
     if($key<$l){
     if($value==$c){
       return 0;
     }else if(abs($l-$key)==abs($c-$value)){
      return 0;
     }
    }
   }
   return 1;
}
function scan($line){
   global $tres;
   global $res;
   global $n,$count;
   if($line==$n){
     $res[]=$tres;
    // $tres=array();
    $count++;
   }else{
     for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++){
       if(check($line,$i)==1){
        $tres[$line]=$i;
        $nxline=$line+1;
        scan($nxline);
       }
     }
   }
}
$tres=array();
$res=array();
$n=8;$count=0;
$stime=microtime();
scan(0);
$etime=microtime();
var_dump($res);
echo "there is $count ways !\n";
$t=$etime-$stime;
echo (int)$t."seconds used.";

It is also necessary to explain that the time calculation of the last surface is not rigorous. The high-precision variable php cannot be subtracted directly, and there will be serious errors. Here is only a temporary demonstration, which requires accurate calculation and calls related functions.
