Summary

Describes a constraint in a number-placement puzzle that indicates that whatever value the specified FindTheValueConstraint.Cell contains, the cell that many steps away must contain FindTheValueConstraint.Value.

Example

For example, if FindTheValueConstraint.Cell is the top-left corner and the constraint covers the top row, then FindTheValueConstraint.Cell can only contain a 3 if the fourth cell (3 cells to the right of the top-left corner) contains FindTheValueConstraint.Value.

Constructors

FindTheValueConstraint(int cell, int value, IEnumerable<int> affectedCells)	Constructor.
FindTheValueConstraint(int cell, int gridWidth, int gridHeight, FindTheValueConstraint.CellDirection direction, int value)	Convenience constructor to generate a FindTheValueConstraint given a grid position, size, and a direction.

Instance methods

ConstraintResult

Process(SolverState state) Overrides: Constraint.Process(SolverState)

Refer to the documentation for Constraint.Process.

Instance properties

bool	CanReevaluate Overrides: Constraint.CanReevaluate	Refer to the documentation for Constraint.CanReevaluate.
int	Cell	The “focus” cell that indicates how far FindTheValueConstraint.Value is.
int	Value	The value that must be in the cell a number of steps away from FindTheValueConstraint.Cell.

Nested types

CellDirection

Used to indicate directions in FindTheValueConstraint(int, int, int, FindTheValueConstraint.CellDirection, int).
