{- the N Queens problem (alternative implementation). The propositional variables correspond to the positions on the board. It shows how to construct an OBDD and how to check some of its properties. It also shows that the implementation is not terribly efficient. It computes the number of solutions for board size 8 (the answer is: 92) in approx. 1.6 seconds on my machine.
