My version of SukakuExplainer appears to have issues with BUGs - I dont have time to look further into this right now, maybe later.

To rate the puzzles, start the GUI and use Options -> Solving techniques... to disable 'Bivalue Universal Grave' technique and exit GUI, then serate using the '-T' option, e.g.

Code: Select all

... serate puzzles.txt -X -T


[Hajime]

I use version 2021.4.7

[1to9only]

The Bivalue Universal Grave problem is fixed.
An updated SE (2023.3.10) can be downloaded from here: https://wormhole.app/bkpe8#Z3OQgCXD6oTaLROkln9PPA for the next 24 hours.
I'll update github and do a proper release some time later.

Hi 1to9only:
How can I analyze sukaku by pressing F9 in a GUI program?

How can I analyze sukaku by pressing F9 in a GUI program?

You'll need to turn off the sudoku checks (17 clues, at least 8 of digits 1-9), then F9 should work on sukakus.

The quick fix is to modify (comment out) the sudoku checks in analyse() function found towards the end of Solver.java:

Code: Select all

    public Hint analyse(Asker asker) {
        Grid copy = new Grid();
        grid.copyTo(copy);
        try {
            SingleHintAccumulator accu = new SingleHintAccumulator();
            try {
//              for (WarningHintProducer producer : validatorHintProducers)
//                  producer.getHints(grid, accu);
//              for (WarningHintProducer producer : warningHintProducers)
//                  producer.getHints(grid, accu);
                Analyser engine = new Analyser(this, asker);
                engine.getHints(grid, accu);
            } catch (InterruptedException willProbablyHappen) {}
            return accu.getHint();
        } finally {
            copy.copyTo(grid);
        }
    }



Rebuild SukakuExplainer.jar, F9 should now work on sukakus. I've tested this on a normal sukaku, not on sukaku-X.
