Talk:N-queens minimum and knights and bishops: Difference between revisions

(→‎Simple solution for bishops: Replied to Horsth.)
Line 62:
: Although I realized this some time ago and several sources simply state the minimum number of bishops to be N for an N x N board I haven't been able to find a mathematical proof of this. In other words how do you know that there isn't a solution which only uses N-1 bishops?
 
: Incidentally, although I've written a Go solution, the only one I've posted so far is Wren *. The former is, of course, much quicker but still far too slow for my liking.
 
: Any ideas on how the performance of the Wren solution could be improved? I've tried a number of things but (apart from improving the diagonal checking) no joy so far. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 17:11, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
