Real-life kata!

solved it but when N gets over 28, it starts taking too much time and my code times out. I used dictionary lookups and stored diogonals inside as well as invalid squares stored as sets, idk how else i can optimize it though. whatevs, it was fun to poke around this one, thx!

fixed

The sample tests fail on python 3.11 and 3.10 because the test harness was not imported.
I don't know why the main tests work fine; I worked around it on the sample tests by putting in sample_check.__globals__['test'] = test at the top of the 8 queen test function after importing the tests with import codewars_test as test at the top of the sample tests file.

Also, I would appreciate it if you used PEP 8 formatting in your test code. (I was bothered by the 2-space indents)

In the description:

maze[1][1].west = maze.cell(0,1);

What is maze.cell(0, 1)? Isn't maze a 2d array?

what if we have two numbers with the same length but a < b. For example 13 and 25. the output will be 251325, but 132513 is needed

Can we just straight up delete this. I got some dirty points but I still cannot bear to see this horrendous description and test cases exist

mf trying to make the most confusing description ever, making us shorting name according to his fantasy

Very useful kata for real-applications.

lol

2 kyu kata if solved without wiki, 6 kyu if with, 4 kyu in average.
Thanks!

Ternary for the win!
