我陷入了扩展练习 28.2如何设计程序。我使用真值或假值向量来表示棋盘，而不是使用列表。这是我所得到的，但不起作用：

#lang Scheme

(define-struct posn (i j))

;takes in a position in i, j form and a board and 
;  returns a natural number that represents the position in index form
;example for board xxx
;                  xxx
;                  xxx
;(0, 1) -> 1
;(2, 1) -> 7
(define (board-ref a-posn a-board)
  (+ (* (sqrt (vector-length a-board)) (posn-i a-posn))
     (posn-j a-posn)))

;reverse of the above function
;1 -> (0, 1)
;7 -> (2, 1)
(define (get-posn n a-board)
  (local ((define board-length (sqrt (vector-length a-board))))
    (make-posn (floor (/ n board-length)) 
               (remainder n board-length))))

;determines if posn1 threatens posn2
;true if they are on the same row/column/diagonal
(define (threatened? posn1 posn2)
  (cond
    ((= (posn-i posn1) (posn-i posn2)) #t)
    ((= (posn-j posn1) (posn-j posn2)) #t)
    ((= (abs (- (posn-i posn1)
                (posn-i posn2)))
        (abs (- (posn-j posn1)
                (posn-j posn2)))) #t)

I'm stuck on the extended exercise 28.2 of How to Design Programs. I used a vector of true or false values to represent the board instead of using a list. This is what I've got which doesn't work:

#lang Scheme

(define-struct posn (i j))

;takes in a position in i, j form and a board and 
;  returns a natural number that represents the position in index form
;example for board xxx

;(0, 1) -> 1
;(2, 1) -> 7
(define (board-ref a-posn a-board)
  (+ (* (sqrt (vector-length a-board)) (posn-i a-posn))
     (posn-j a-posn)))

;reverse of the above function
;1 -> (0, 1)
;7 -> (2, 1)
(define (get-posn n a-board)
  (local ((define board-length (sqrt (vector-length a-board))))
    (make-posn (floor (/ n board-length)) 
               (remainder n board-length))))

;determines if posn1 threatens posn2
;true if they are on the same row/column/diagonal
(define (threatened? posn1 posn2)
  (cond
    ((= (posn-i posn1) (posn-i posn2)) #t)

这不是最快的方案实现，但它非常简洁。我确实独立想出了它，但我怀疑它是否独特。它采用 PLT 方案，因此需要更改一些函数名称才能使其在 R6RS 中运行。解决方案列表和每个解决方案都有缺点，因此它们是相反的。最后的反转和地图重新排序所有内容，并将行添加到解决方案以获得漂亮的输出。大多数语言都有折叠类型功能，参见：
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fold_%28higher-order_function% 29

#lang scheme/base
(define (N-Queens N)  

  (define (attacks? delta-row column solution)
    (and (not (null? solution))
         (or (= delta-row (abs (- column (car solution))))
             (attacks? (add1 delta-row) column (cdr solution)))))  

  (define (next-queen safe-columns solution solutions)
    (if (null? safe-columns)
        (cons solution solutions)
        (let move-queen ((columns safe-columns) (new-solutions solutions))
          (if (null? columns) new-solutions
              (move-queen
                (cdr columns)
                (if (attacks? 1 (car columns) solution) new-solutions
                    (next-queen (remq (car columns) safe-columns)  
                                (cons (car columns) solution)  
                                new-solutions)))))))

  (unless (exact-positive-integer? N)
    (raise-type-error 'N-Queens "exact-positive-integer" N))
  (let ((rows (build-list N (λ (row) (add1 row)))))
    (reverse (map (λ (columns) (map cons rows (reverse columns)))
                  (next-queen (build-list N (λ (i) (add1 i))) null null)))))

如果你仔细想想这个问题，就会发现列表确实是解决这个问题的自然数据结构。由于每行只能放置一个皇后，因此需要做的就是将安全或未使用列的列表传递给下一行的迭代器。这是通过调用 cond 子句中的 remq 来完成的，该子句对 next-queen 进行回溯调用。

Foldl 函数可以重写为命名的let：

(define (next-queen safe-columns solution solutions)
  (if (null? safe-columns)
      (cons solution solutions)
      (let move-queen ((columns safe-columns) (new-solutions solutions))
        (if (null? columns) new-solutions
            (move-queen

这要快得多，因为它避免了foldl 中内置的参数检查开销。我在查看 PLT 方案 N-Queens 基准时想到了使用隐式行的想法。从增量行 1 开始，并在检查解决方案时递增它，这是非常巧妙的。由于某种原因，abs在PLT方案中很昂贵，所以有更快的攻击形式吗？

在PLT方案中，您必须使用可变列表类型才能实现最快的实现。可以编写对解决方案进行计数而不返回解决方案的基准，而无需创建除初始列列表之外的任何缺点单元格。这可以避免收集垃圾，直到 N = 17，此时 gc 花费了 618 毫秒，而程序花费了 1 小时 51 分钟找到 95,815,104 个解决方案。

This isn't the fastest scheme implementation possible, but it's pretty concise. I did come up with it independently, but I doubt it's unique. It's in PLT Scheme, so some function names need to be changed to get it running in R6RS. The list of solutions and each solution are built with cons, so they're reversed. The reverses and maps at the end reorder everything and add rows to the solutions for a pretty output. Most languages have a fold type function, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fold_%28higher-order_function%29

#lang scheme/base
(define (N-Queens N)  

  (define (attacks? delta-row column solution)
    (and (not (null? solution))
         (or (= delta-row (abs (- column (car solution))))
             (attacks? (add1 delta-row) column (cdr solution)))))  

  (define (next-queen safe-columns solution solutions)
    (if (null? safe-columns)
        (cons solution solutions)
        (let move-queen ((columns safe-columns) (new-solutions solutions))
          (if (null? columns) new-solutions
              (move-queen
                (cdr columns)
                (if (attacks? 1 (car columns) solution) new-solutions
                    (next-queen (remq (car columns) safe-columns)  
                                (cons (car columns) solution)  
                                new-solutions)))))))

  (unless (exact-positive-integer? N)
    (raise-type-error 'N-Queens "exact-positive-integer" N))
  (let ((rows (build-list N (λ (row) (add1 row)))))
    (reverse (map (λ (columns) (map cons rows (reverse columns)))
                  (next-queen (build-list N (λ (i) (add1 i))) null null)))))

If you think about the problem, a list is really the natural data structure for this problem. Since only one queen can be placed on each row, all that needs to be done is pass a list of safe or unused columns to the iterator for the next row. This is done with the call to remq in the cond clause that makes the backtracking call to next-queen.

The foldl function can be rewritten as a named let:

(define (next-queen safe-columns solution solutions)
  (if (null? safe-columns)
      (cons solution solutions)
      (let move-queen ((columns safe-columns) (new-solutions solutions))
        (if (null? columns) new-solutions
            (move-queen

This is considerably faster, since it avoids the argument checking overhead built into foldl. I came across the idea of using implicit rows while looking at the PLT Scheme N-Queens benchmark. Starting with a delta-row of one and incrementing it as the solution is checked is pretty slick. For some reason, abs is expensive in PLT Scheme, so there is a faster form for attacks?

In PLT Scheme, you have to use the mutable list type for the fastest implementation. A benchmark that counts solutions without returning them can be written without creating any cons cells, other than the initial column list. This avoids collecting garbage until N = 17, when 618 milliseconds were spent in gc while the program spent 1 hour, 51 minutes finding the 95,815,104 solutions.

又是我。这几天我一直在思考和苦恼这个问题，终于得到了答案。

由于没有人回答这个问题。我只是将其发布在这里，以供那些可能认为它有帮助的人使用。

对于那些好奇的人，我正在使用 DrScheme。

It's me again. I've been thinking and agonizing over the question for the past few days and finally got the answer.

Since no one has answered the question. I'll just post it here for those who might find it helpful.

这是大约 11 年前的事情，当时我有一个函数式编程课程，我认为这是使用 MIT 方案或 mzScheme。大多数情况下，它只是对我们使用的 Springer/Friedman 文本进行修改，刚刚解决了 8 个皇后问题。练习是将其推广到 N 个皇后，此代码就是这样做的。

This is from about 11 years ago when I had a functional programming class, and I think this was using either MIT scheme or mzScheme. Mostly it's just modifications from the Springer/Friedman text that we used which just solved for 8 queens. The exercise was to generalize it for N queens, which this code does.
