N-Queen problem solver

Description/Descrição:

This is a n-queen problem solver using local search algorithms.

[Pt-Br]: Este é um programa que resolve o problema das n-rainhas utilizando algoritmos de busca local.

Local search algorithms/Algoritmos de busca local:

• Hill Climbing
• Hill Climbing with random restart
• Simulated Annealing

Heuristic/Heurística:

To solve this problem we used as a heuristic the number of pairs of queens attacking each other, either directly or indirectly.

[Pt-Br]: Para resolver este problema utilizou-se como heurística, o número de pares de rainhas se atacando, seja direta ou indiretamente.

Usage/Modo de uso:

python main.py -h
usage: main.py [-h] [-n N] [-i I] [--all {0,1}]
