COMMENTS

1. Jelliss computes the number of tour diagrams (which is equal to half the number of tours). 2. Sequence A079137 computes the number of tour DIAGRAMS for a 4xK board (again, equal to half the number of tours). 3. Kraitchik (1942) incorrectly reports 376 tour diagrams for the 3x8 case; the correct number is 396 (i.e. 792 tours); [cf. Rose, Jelliss]
