    The feasibility problem is to find a point contained in the intersection of a finite collection of constraint sets. This paper is a tutorial on the Douglas-Rachford algorithm for solving convex and nonconvex feasibility problems for the unacquainted. Several known projection algorithms, particularly the Douglas-Rachford method, are analyzed. The Douglas-Rachford method is applied to solve the combinatorial \((m, n)\)-queens problem as well as the problem of constructing a probability distribution with prescribed moments.
