The queen moves any number of vacant squares horizontally,vertically or diagonally.

A knight moves to one of the nearest squares not on the same rank, file, or diagonal. (This can be thought of as moving two squares horizontally then one square horizontally then one square vertically, or moving one square horizontally then two squares vertically-i.e in an "L" pattern.) The knight is not blocked by other pieces; it jumpto the new location.
