Surely this post doesn't count as it didn't follow another player's submission?

If I may act as referee :

Each player can post 1 puzzle maximum for 1 day, except if somebody posts an other satisfactory puzzle.

The 2 consecutive TTHsieh's posts are dated :

Posted: Sun Sep 30, 2007 5:36 am
Posted: Mon Oct 01, 2007 6:05 am

More than one day between the two posts.
So, both are valid.

How to calculate the 1284 ?

How to calculate the 1284 ?

since ravel's post I added a filter expression function that uses the canonical puzzle as a key
in a splay tree to filter out dups -- its only suitable for ~millions of puzzles
for larger input you'll need to use -f%c to an external file and sort -u
for your data

Code: Select all

sudoku -c1, -qFN -f'%v' -e 'uniq()' tthsieh.txt > tthsieh.out

-c1, cuts the ','-separated field #1 from the input file
the solver by default solves; -qFN uses the quickest method when solving details aren't needed
-f'%v' is the output format, %v means the grid in 81 char single line form with '. for empty cells
-e 'uniq()' is the filtering expression; only the first of equivalent (up to isomorphism) puzzles is selected

as ravel noted its >>>> quicker to filter out dups before doing anything with SE
the example took 40s @ 2GHz

Here's a new challenge.
Any comments are welcome.

>>The game ends if no puzzle has been posted for 3 days.<<

36 hours sounds better to me. I like playing.



>>The winner is the player with the highest number of points and gets the right to be the new dealer.
He loses his right if he doesn't propose any new puzzle within 1 week.<<

26 hours. I'd rather play a new game than wait. I'd think the winner would agree?
