Closed Knight’s Tour on Ring Boards (n,n,1)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Let m, n be odd integers such that m, n 3, the ring boards (m, n, 1) is an m x n chessboard with the middle part of size 1 x 1 is missing. This article studies the conditions to guarantee the existence of a closed knight’s tour on the ring board (n, n, 1) and the ring board (m, m+4k, 1) for odd integers m such that m 11 and k 0 and if it exists, then an algorithm for finding a closed knight’s tour on that board is given.
