kakuro-solver

A simple kakuro Constraint Satisfaction Problem with various backtracking methods.

Files csp.py utils.py search.py are forked from AIMA python repository https://github.com/aimacode/aima-python. These files implement backtracking methods.

kakuro.py defines the CSP and with a class that contains the constraints, the variables, the neighbors, and the domain. These parameters are needed for the solution of the CSP.

About the Constraints

There are 3 binary constraints that the program tries to satisfy.

  1. 2 neighbor variables cant be equal
  2. The sum of an array must be equal to its constrain
  3. If in an array only 2 variables are assigned then their sum must be less than the constraint of the array

Backtracking methods

  • Backtracking
  • Backtracking + MRV
  • Forward check
  • Forward check + MRV
  • MAC
  • MAC + MRV
