Hi,

Your code could be written in fewer lines. Try to use techniques like list comprehension and built-in functions.

Of course there are easier ways to solve the problem but I don’t believe the test_generators method above uses an evolutionary algorithm (I might be wrong as I’ve not got or used this module before) which was the whole purpose of me writing this.

Hm.

>>> import test.test_generators as ttg
>>> solutions=ttg.Queens(8).solve()
>>> solutions.next()
[0, 4, 7, 5, 2, 6, 1, 3]
>>> solutions.next()
[0, 5, 7, 2, 6, 3, 1, 4]

test.test_generators is a very pleasant read.

JGM, sorry about that. There was a typo that I copied an pasted for all the links in the syntax of the link. It’s fixed now, and links are working.

Thanks for pointing it out.

Heya, tried to grab the commented version from the links at the bottom and they appear busted…
