How many ways are there to place 5 white queens and 6 black queens on a 6∗6 chessboard the same way?
Answer format: Count/White queens positions/Black queens positions // For the 1st solution in lexicographic order.
A position is given as : (i,j) where i, j are the row and column index starting from the upper left cell, index starting at 1
Example : 8/(1,1)(1,2)(4,1)/(2,4)(2,5)(3,5)(5,3)(5,4) // For 3 white and 5 black queens on a 5∗5 chessboard.
