Write a Python Program to implement the Backtracking approach to solve N Queen’s problem

The N-Queens problem is a classic example of a constraint satisfaction problem where you need to place N queens on an N x N chessboard so that no two queens can attack each other. This means no two queens can share the same row, column, or diagonal.

Backtracking Approach

The backtracking algorithm attempts to build a solution incrementally and abandons a partial solution as soon as it determines that it cannot be extended to a valid solution. For the N-Queens problem, this means placing queens one by one in different columns, and for each column, checking for conflicts.
