N Queens Problem Leetcode

/*
	This implementation produces a non-attacking placement
	of chess queens. A non-attacking placement is one where
	no queen can attack another queen in a single turn.
	This is one of the best examples of backtracking. 

	Let N be the number of queens to be placed on 
	a N*N board. 
	Time complexity: O(N!)
	Space complexity: O(N^2)
