Q: How do we use constraint propagation to solve the naked twins problem?
A: I look for each box with the length of 2, if there is a peer with the same possible values. If there is, I delete these values from the other boxes in the same unit.
Q: How do we use constraint propagation to solve the diagonal sudoku problem?
A: I just update the peers with the diagonals as peers, so the solver will act as it always act and say there is an error if there is two equal elements in the same diagonal.
This project requires Python 3.
We recommend students install Anaconda, a pre-packaged Python distribution that contains all of the necessary libraries and software for this project. Please try using the environment we provided in the Anaconda lesson of the Nanodegree.
Optionally, you can also install pygame if you want to see your visualization. If you've followed our instructions for setting up our conda environment, you should be all set.
If not, please see how to download pygame here.
solutions.py- You'll fill this in as part of your solution.solution_test.py- Do not modify this. You can test your solution by runningpython solution_test.py.PySudoku.py- Do not modify this. This is code for visualizing your solution.visualize.py- Do not modify this. This is code for visualizing your solution.
To visualize your solution, please only assign values to the values_dict using the assign_values function provided in solution.py
The data consists of a text file of diagonal sudokus for you to solve.
