N-Queen's Problem
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description : This is NQueens' problem. Here n queens will have
to be placed in (n x n) matrix in such a way that none will meet
any other wile moving horizontally, vertically or along diagonal
with respect to its position. The program is able to take any
input, but for better output try it with not more than 23.
