You are given an integer 'N'. For a given 'N' x 'N' chessboard, find a way to place 'N' queens such that no queen can attack any other queen on the chessboard.

A queen can be killed when it lies in the same row, or same column, or the same diagonal of any of the other queens. You have to print all such configurations.

Coding problem1

It was scheduled at 11:00 am and the HR he asked me some situation based question and he asked a puzzle .

1. Puzzle

There are eight balls. Seven of them weigh the same but one of them has a different weight (heavier or lighter). How do you find the odd ball with two weighs?

Problem approach

It is possible. If we know the odd ball is heavier or lighter
Step 1 : Take any 6 balls and put 3 on left and 3 on right. If the odd ball is present then that ball can be predicted on which side it is present (As its weight differs from others that side will move up or down )
Step 2 : Take those 3 balls (where odd ball is present). Now put 1 ball on the left side and 1 on the right side. If the weight differs you can find out odd ball. If the weight of two balls is the same the one which is left is the odd ball.
Step 3 : If the step 1 result is equal then the remaining two balls are weighed and odd ball can be predicted easily.
So we need only 2 weighs either step 1 and step 2 or step 1 and step 3.
