[SOLVED] Coms 4701 homework 2: coding – csps

The objective of Sudoku is to fill a 9×9 grid with the numbers 1-9 so that each column, row, and 3×3 sub-grid (or box) contains one of each digit. You may try out the game here: sudoku.com. Sudoku has 81 variables, i.e. 81 tiles.The variables are named by row and column, and are valued from 1 to 9 subject to the constraints that no two cells in the same row, column, or box may be the same. Frame your problem in terms of variables, domains, and constraints.We suggest representing a Sudoku board with a Python dictionary, where each key is a variable name based on location, and value of the tile placed there. Using variable names Al… A9… I1… I9, the board above has: • sudoku dict[“B1”] = 2, and • sudoku dict[“E2”] = 9. We give value zero to a tile that has not yet been filled.Executing your program Your program will be executed as follows: $ python3 sudoku.py In the starter zip, sudokus start.txt, contains hundreds of sample unsolved Sudoku boards, and sudokus finish.txt the corresponding solutions. Each board is represented as a single line of text, starting from the top-left corner of the board, and listed left-to-right, top-to-bottom. If you place the file sudokus start.txt in the same folder as sudoku.py the following command will apply your algorithm to all boards and produce an output. For detail, read the main method in skeleton code. $ python3 sudoku.pyThe first board in sudokus start.txt is represented as the string: 003020600900305001001806400008102900700000008006708200002609500800203009005010300 Which is equivalent to: 0 0 3 0 2 0 6 0 0 9 0 0 3 0 5 0 0 1 0 0 1 8 0 6 4 0 0 0 0 8 1 0 2 9 0 0 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8 0 0 6 7 0 8 2 0 0 0 0 2 6 0 9 5 0 0 8 0 0 2 0 3 0 0 9 0 0 5 0 1 0 3 0 0 Your program will generate output.txt, containing a single line of text representing the finished Sudoku board. E.g.: 483921657967345821251876493548132976729564138136798245372689514814253769695417382Test your program using sudokus finish.txt, which contains the solved versions of all of the same puzzles. All puzzles we provided contained unique solutions. III. Backtracking Algorithm Implement backtracking search using the minimum remaining value heuristic. Pick your own order of values to try for each variable, and apply forward checking to reduce variables domains.• Test your program on sudokus start.txt. • Report the number of puzzles you can solve and the mean, standard deviation, min, and max of the runtime over all puzzles in sudokus start.txt.IV. Important Information 1. Test-Run Your Code Test, test, test. Make sure you produce an output file with the exact format of the example given. 2. Grading Submissions We test your final program on 20 boards. Each board is worth 5 points if solved, and zero otherwise. These boards are similar to those in your starter zip, so if you solve all those, you’ll get full credit. 3. Time Limit No brute-force! Your program should solve puzzles in well under a minute per board. Programs with much longer running times will be killed. 4. Just for fun Try your code on the world’s hardest Sudokus! There’s nothing to submit here, just for fun. For example:Sudoku: 800000000003600000070090200050007000000045700000100030001000068008500010090000400 Solution: 812753649943682175675491283154237896369845721287169534521974368438526917796318452 IV. What You Need To Submit 1. Your sudoku.py file (and any other python code dependency) 2. A README.txt with your results, including the: • number of boards you could solve from sudokus start.txt, • running time statistics: min, max, mean, and standard deviation.V. Before You Submit • Ensure that your file is named sudoku.py • Ensure that your file compiles and runs. • After your submission on Gradescope you will receive feedback in 5 minutes on whether your code has the proper filename, output format and execution time. Please address any issue and resubmit before the deadline.
