Release V628
Add minlex tool (algorithm from:http://forum.enjoysudoku.com/gridchecker-an-exhaustive-puzzle-enumerator-t30071-45.html#p230322)

Add User Manual(Chinese Only,Due to my lack of English proficiency, the English version is not available for the time being.)

your computation times are very good.

g-Braid's search is about 53 times slower than Braid's search.

Only for this case. If you want a better estimate of the ratio, use the mean times for the cbg-000 collection.

[yzfwsf]

I tested cbg-000 collection and obtained the following results:

B-rating: A total of 21375 puzzles were solved in 157.12 seconds, each taking 7.35 milliseconds
gB-rating: A total of 21375 puzzles were solved in 1685.46 seconds, each taking 78.85 milliseconds

g-Braid's search is about 10.3 times slower than Braid's search.

Release V629 on my google drive
This update adds new techniques such as XYZ-Ring, Blossom Loop, Braid, g-Braid and MultiFish. Among them, the Blossom Loop technique must be placed before Cell/Region FC, otherwise it will not be found. Braid shares related options with Whip, such as large memory mode and shortest first. When solving extremely difficult TE2 puzzles, the Braid engine may encounter insufficient buffer. If you want to test its exact Braid score, please check Use the old AIC algorithm so that the program will automatically enter the DFS search mode when the buffering is insufficient. This will avoid the dilemma of insufficient buffer.

want to test this new stuff out, but the English translations are still missing so i have no idea what button does what?

[jco]

want to test this new stuff out, but the English translations are still missing so i have no idea what button does what?

I opened the YZF_Sudoku.ini file and at the end of it,
under [Language], I replaced "Setting=Custom.lang" by "Setting=default.lang"

[StrmCkr]

I'll try that, thanks.

[ghfick]

If YZF_Sudoku is not showing English, you can go to the menu bar. The third column is actually Options (in English). The last in that list is Language. Then the first choice is English. YZF_Sudoku should remember the change.

yup that fixed it for me thanks.

I did not write this form of SK-Loop. This looks like Xsudo's explanation. Strictly speaking, this should not be considered an SK-Loop because it is not a zero-rank structure at all. My solver has implemented MultiFish and should be able to find this zero-rank structure with regions as Truth. I'm curious about the implementation details of xsudo. I guess it uses the DLX algorithm to search all solution sets of limited truth and then obtain their intersection. Therefore, when there are many truths, there will be too many solutions and their intersection cannot be obtained. The Hidden Sk you gave an example is not the simplest structure either. Xsudo can slim it down to 16truth. I feel like I've written quite a few variations of zero-rank structures, so I can only say sorry for now. I have uploaded 629v2 to Google Drive, fixed the crash bug under extreme testing conditions, and adopted some interface modification suggestions provided by Mr. Gordon Fick.

fair enough:

so I can only say sorry for now.

a rank zero structure: i built this one manually using AHS 3589 ( in the 4 sectors r28c28 ): in-which each ahs is quadruple linked {2 per col} and (2 per row) x4 : acts as a ring.
the complementary Hidden set sk-loop to the normal ALS Sk-loop, pretty much I'm the only one on here that's ever mentioned this or posted them {afaik, even Hidden sk-loop title is what i called these years back}

either ways something interesting if it ever peeks your attention.
