Interface IParameters

Interface that defines the required parameters to search for a solution to a puzzle.

Namespace: TreeProblemFramework.Solver

Properties

HeuristicPriority

Gets or sets the priority to determine which environments to expand the first based on their heuristic values.

Declaration

Priority HeuristicPriority { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Priority	The heuristic priority.

SetSolutionsAsNotSeen

Gets or sets a value indicating whether a solution, once found, should be set as not seen. This allows for finding a same solution that is reached through different paths.

Declaration

bool SetSolutionsAsNotSeen { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Boolean	True if set solutions as not seen, false if not.

TraverseAlgorithm

Gets or sets the algorithm to be used in order to find a solution to a puzzle.

Declaration

Algorithm TraverseAlgorithm { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Algorithm	The search algorithm.

Methods

ComputeHeuristic(IEnvironment)

Method that calculates the heuristic of a given environment against the solution.

Declaration

double ComputeHeuristic(IEnvironment env)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IEnvironment	env	The environment from which to compute its heuristic value.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Double	The heuristic value.

ComputeSummary(IEnvironment)

Calculates the summary, which should be unique, of a given environment.

Declaration

string ComputeSummary(IEnvironment env)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IEnvironment	env	The environment from which to compute its summary.

Returns

Type	Description
System.String	An string representation of the environment's summary.
