#	Calculate a Knight's tour of a chessboard.
#
#	This uses Warnsdorff's rule to calculate the next square each
#	time. This specifies that the next square should be the one that
#	has the least number of available moves.
#
#	Using this rule it is possible to get to a position where
#	there are no squares available to move into. In this implementation
#	this occurs when the starting square is d6.
#
#	To solve this fault an enhancement to the rule is that if we
#	have a choice of squares with an equal score, we should choose
#	the one nearest the edge of the board.
#
#	If the call to the Edgemost function is commented out you can see
#	this occur.
#
#	You can drag the knight to a specific square to start if you wish.
#	If you let it repeat then it will choose random start positions
#	for each new tour.
