These are Haskell translations of Ninety Nine Lisp Problems.
If you want to work on one of these, put your name in the block so we know someone's working on it. Then, change n in your block to the appropriate problem number, and fill in the <Problem description>,<example in lisp>,<example in Haskell>,<solution in haskell> and <description of implementation> fields.
Miscellaneous problems
Problem 90
Eight queens problem
This is a classical problem in computer science. The objective is to place eight queens on a chessboard so that no two queens are attacking each other; i.e., no two queens are in the same row, the same column, or on the same diagonal.
Hint: Represent the positions of the queens as a list of numbers 1..N. Example: [4,2,7,3,6,8,5,1] means that the queen in the first column is in row 4, the queen in the second column is in row 2, etc. Use the generate-and-test paradigm.
Example in Haskell: > length queens 92 > take 1 queens [[4,2,7,3,6,8,5,1]]
Solution:
queens = queens' 8
queens' 0 = [[]]
queens' (n+1) = [ try:alreadySet | alreadySet <- queens' n, try <- [1..8], isSafe try alreadySet]
where isSafe try alreadySet = not (sameRow try alreadySet || sameDiagonal try alreadySet)
sameRow try alreadySet = try `elem` alreadySet
sameDiagonal try alreadySet = not . null . filter (\(col,q) -> abs(try - q) == col) $ zip [1..] alreadySet
By definition/data representation no two queens can occupy the same column. "try `elem` alreadySet" checks for a queen in the same row, "abs(try - q) == col" checks for a queen in the same diagonal.
This is a modification of a function I wrote when I was just learning haskell, so there's certainly much to improve here! For one thing there is speedup potential in caching "blocked" rows, columns and diagonals.
