• Attempts to solve the 8-Queens problem in chess.
• Tries to find a solution of placing 8 Queens in a chessboard without any queens being able to attack the others.

• Outputs the ID of a patriot battery and direction of fire to intercept rocket.
• If unable to intercept, will output a warning message and coordinates of entry into safe zone.

5. Largest-Product-Functions

• Various functions targetting large products.
• Covers some project-euler problems.

6. Prime-Functions

• Various functions that circulate around primes.
• Covers some project-euler problems.

7. Special-Unique-Number-Functions

• Various number functions that don't fit into other categories.
• Covers some project-euler problems.

8. Sudoku_Solver

• Solves sudokus. Takes in a sudoku problem and outputs the solution.

9. Summation-Functions

• Various number functions that focus on summations
• Covers some project-euler problems.

10. HTML and JavaScript
