Summary

Constrains a set of values to occur a specified maximum number of times within a specified region.

Constructors

MaximumCountConstraint(IEnumerable<int> cells, Func<int, bool> isRestrictedValue, int maxAllowed)

Constrains a set of values to occur a specified maximum number of times within a specified region.

Instance methods

ConstraintResult

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

Refer to the documentation for Constraint.Process.

Static methods

int	TranslateCoordinate(string str, int gridWidth = 9) Inherited from Constraint	Converts a convenient coordinate notation into a puzzle-grid index.
IEnumerable<int>	TranslateCoordinates(string str, int gridWidth = 9) Inherited from Constraint	Converts a convenient coordinate notation into puzzle-grid indices.

Instance properties

int[]	AffectedCells Inherited from Constraint	The group of cells affected by this constraint, or null if it affects all of them.
bool	CanReevaluate Inherited from Constraint Virtual	By default, a constraint is only evaluated once for every digit placed in the grid, but not when another constraint merely rules out a possibility. Derived types can override this and return true to indicate to the solver that the constraint should be reevaluated (meaning: have Constraint.Process(SolverState) called on it again) when another constraint rules out a value in one of the affected cells of this constraint.
Func<int, bool>	IsRestrictedValue	The value that may only occur up to MaximumCountConstraint.MaxAllowed number of times within Constraint.AffectedCells.
int	MaxAllowed	The maximum number of times a restricted value (MaximumCountConstraint.IsRestrictedValue) may occur within Constraint.AffectedCells.
int?	NumCombinations Inherited from Constraint Virtual	Indicates an approximate number of possible combinations of digits this constraint can still accommodate. This will help the solver prioritize cells when multiple cells have the same number of combinations individually.
