This is a Commodore Basic program called "Queen's Quarrel" that I typed in from "Computes Third Book Of Commodore 64 Games." It is a logic puzzle based on the Eight Queens Problem by mathematician, Karl Friedrich Gauss. The object of the puzzle is place one queen per row on an 8x8 chess board in such a manner that no queen can capture another. Two errors in the BASIC program, at least when using VICE: In line 30, change {SHIFT-SPACE} to just two spaces and when asked to do SHIFT-P just use a regular "p".
