[From Thomas B.

This calculation took about 53 years of CPU time. %E A000170 a(25) has been confirmed by the NTU 25Queen Project at National Taiwan University and Ming Chuan University, led by Yuh-Pyng (Arping) Shieh, Jul 26 2005.

Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), May 01 2006 %E A000170 The NQueens-at-Home web site gives a different value for a(24), 226732487925864. Thanks to Goran Fagerstrom for pointing this out. I do not know which value is correct. I have therefore created a new entry, A140393, which gives the NQueens-at-home version of the sequence. - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Jun 18 2008 %E A000170 It now appears that this sequence (A000170) is correct and A140393 is wrong. - N. J. A.
