# kenken solver
Solving kenken puzzles.
Use in browser or with Node. (Note: it still needs some performance improvements. Can take way too long for large puzzles.)
Here's [an example](https://rolyatmax.github.io/kenken-solver/).
```js
const solve = require('./solve')
const solution = solve(clues)
console.log(solution)
```
where `clues` looks like:
```js
const clues = [
{
symbol: '-',
result: 2,
cells: ['A1', 'B1']
},
{
symbol: 'x',
result: 40,
cells: ['C1', 'D1', 'E1']
},
{
symbol: '+',
result: 3,
cells: ['C2', 'D2']
},
{
symbol: null,
result: 4,
cells: ['E2']
},
{
symbol: '/',
result: 2,
cells: ['B3', 'B4']
},
...
]
```
## To do:
- [x] switch to `A1`, `B1`, etc cell names (instead of `[0,0]`, `[1,0]`, etc)
- [x] add reset button
- [x] add "random puzzle" button
- [ ] encode puzzles in URL for easy sharing?
- [ ] clues validation error feedback in the UI
- [ ] animate the solving
- [x] check for multiple solutions
- [ ] algorithm performance improvements
- [ ] computer-generated kenken puzzles?
- [ ] add some instructions to the UI
- [x] deploy on github pages
