Crate cnfgen 

The library to generate CNF (Conjunctive Normal Form) formulas.

This library provides simple CNF writer, structures to create boolean formula from boolean expressions and integer expressions. The module writer provides basic types, traits to handle clauses and literals, simple the CNF writer to write same CNF formulas. The boolexpr module provides structure to construct boolean expressions. The intexpr and dynintexpr modules provide structure and traits to construct integer expressions.

Same construction of expressions can be done in natural way by using operators or methods. The object called ExprCreator holds all expressions. The main structures that allow construct expressions are expression nodes: BoolExprNode, IntExprNode and DynIntExprNode. BoolExprNode allows to construct boolean expressions. IntExprNode and DynIntExprNode allows to construct integer expressions or multiple bit expressions.

The version 0.4.0 offers new interface to operate on expressions. This interface in boolvar, intvar and dynintvar modules. New interface offers few simplifications that facility writing complex expressions. New boolvar module provides simpler interface to construct boolean expressions. New intvar module provides simpler interface to construct integer expressions. New dynintvar module provides simpler interface to construct dynamic integer expressions. The routine that creates new expression must be called inside call16, call32 or callsys. That routine can returns formula to generate. The BoolVar allows to operate on boolean expressions, IntVar allows to operate on integer expressions and DynIntVar allows to operate on dynamic integer expressions. These types can be used as references and constants be converted into one of that type by using From trait.

The version 0.5.0 adds min and max helpers, new optimized tables and If-Then-Else and and additional subvalues method to dynamic integers.

Samples of usage of these modules can be found in documentation of these modules.

Typical usage of this library is: construction boolean expression and write it by using method write from an expression object. The writer module can be used to write ‘raw’ CNF formulas that can be generated by other software.
