Describe the algorithm
The n-queens puzzle is the problem of placing n queens on an n×n chessboard such that no two queens attack each other.
Given an integer n, return all distinct solutions to the n-queens puzzle.
Each solution contains a distinct board configuration of the n-queens' placement, where 'Q' and '.' both indicate a queen and an empty space respectively.

Example:
Input: 4 Output: [ [".Q..", // Solution 1 "...Q", "Q...", "..Q."],
["..Q.", // Solution 2 "Q...", "...Q", ".Q.."] ] Explanation: There exist two distinct solutions to the 4-queens puzzle as shown above.
