JakubMifek / klotski

Klotski game created for AI evaluation as my assignment for AI I course at MFF UK

PyKlotski puzzle

This project is my assignment for artificial intelligence classes.

Klotski file format

Klotski file format is defined as follows:

• First line determines height and width of the table
• Follows height lines of following format:
  • - represents a wall
  • + represents a goal space
  • . represents a free space
  • any other symbol (including white spaces) represents a block
  • final line contains a single symbol which determines which block is the one that is supposed to be placed to goal space

Structure

Klotski

Files klotski.py and event.py contain data structures used dedicated for evaluation and manipulation with klotski tables.

Event

• This class I found while researching event system in python
• Original poster is longpoke
• It extends list with event handler capabilities

KlotskiBlock

• Contained in klotski.py
• Contains methods for block's manipulation such as:
  • by_one_movements(self) (movements by one square)
  • all_movements(self) (all possible movements of the block on table)
• Is represented by unique index
• Contains several properties among which are table (KlotskiTable), shape (set of positions determining the shape of the block) and available_movements (set of positions where can be the block placed to)

KlotskiTable

• Contained in klotski.py
• Represents table of klotski blocks
• Loads from a klotski file
• Is indexable with int (returns a row of block indeces) or a tuple of ints (returns a block index)
• Contains methods:
  • get_block(self, index) (returns a block with given index)
  • is_solved(self) (checks whether the puzzle is solved)
  • move_block(self, block, position) (moves the given block to the given position if possible, throws Exception otherwise)
• Contains two event handlers - on_solved and on_block_moved

KlotskiSimulator

The file klotski_simulator.py loads puzzles from puzzles/ folder in the root of the project and executes several runs of each agent on it. Each agent has only specified amount of time to finish each puzzle. Results of simulated race are printed to the console.

If redirected to a file, process_results.py can aggregate the information into more readable results.
