Basically assume the three steps to be l (left), d (diagonal), u(up). U cant
have down and right.

Now assume its a 3X3 board.
Then u have (a single d replaces one u and one l)
        uuulll, uudll, uddl, ddd.

The total number of permutaions of all the above will give u the result.

The same implies for NXN.

For rook it will be only uuullll hence 6!/(3!*3!)

Whereas for bishop ddd, hence only 1, (as bishop is not allowed to back).
