//! This crate implements an easy-to-understand and flexible Sudoku engine. It
//! supports the following key features:
//!
//! * Parsing and printing Sudoku
//! * Checking validity of Sudoku and solutions according to standard rules as
//! well as some common variants
//! * Injection of custom constraints
//! * Solving Sudoku using a perfect backtracking algorithm
//! * Generating Sudoku with a possibility to specify a custom solver that has
//! to be able to solve the result, thus controlling the difficulty
//!
//! Note in this introduction we will mostly be using 4x4 Sudoku due to their
//! simpler nature. These are divided in 4 2x2 blocks, each with the digits 1
//! to 4, just like each row and column.
//!
//! # Parsing and printing Sudoku
//!
//! See [SudokuGrid::parse] for the exact format of a Sudoku code.
//!
//! Codes can be used to exchange Sudoku, while pretty prints can be used to
//! display a Sudoku in a clearer manner. An example of how to parse and
//! display a Sudoku grid is provided below.
//!
//! ```
//! use sudoku_variants::SudokuGrid;
//!
//! let grid =
//!     SudokuGrid::parse("2x2;2, ,3, , ,1, , ,1, , ,4, ,2, ,3").unwrap();
//! println!("{}", grid);
//! ```
//!
//! # Checking validity of Sudoku
//!
//! To check validity, an instance of [Sudoku] not only contains the numbers
//! (stored in a [SudokuGrid]), but also some constraint which specifies the
//! rules. For classic Sudoku rules,
//! [DefaultConstraint](constraint::DefaultConstraint) can be used.
//!
//! It is possible to check an entire Sudoku, individual cells, or potential
//! changes to individual cells that do not require changing the Sudoku's
//! state. An example of the former is provided below.
//!
//! ```
//! use sudoku_variants::Sudoku;
//! use sudoku_variants::constraint::DefaultConstraint;
//!
//! // Some Sudoku for which it is totally unclear whether it is valid.
//! let sudoku = Sudoku::parse("2x2;1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1",
//!     DefaultConstraint).unwrap();
//! assert!(!sudoku.is_valid());
//! ```
//!
//! If you are developing an app that gives feedback to the user, it may be
//! desirable to specify where they made an error. Also, sometimes checking the
//! entire Sudoku is redundant, since only one cell has changed. To do this, it
//! is possible to check the validity of just one cell in the grid.
//!
//! ```
//! use sudoku_variants::Sudoku;
//! use sudoku_variants::constraint::DefaultConstraint;
//!
//! // A riddle posed by our app:
//! // ╔═══╤═══╦═══╤═══╗
//! // ║   │   ║   │ 4 ║
//! // ╟───┼───╫───┼───╢
//! // ║   │ 4 ║ 3 │   ║
//! // ╠═══╪═══╬═══╪═══╣
//! // ║   │ 3 ║   │   ║

//!
//! Similarly, it is also possible to check a singular cell with a potntial new
//! entry, before changing the Sudoku, using [Sudoku::is_valid_number]. Since
//! it otherwise behaves just like the example above, we will not provide
//! another example.
//!
//! All examples above have been using the
//! [DefaultConstraint](constraint::DefaultConstraint), which is actually a
//! composition of [RowConstraint](constraint::RowConstraint),
//! [ColumnConstraint](constraint::ColumnConstraint), and
//! [BlockConstraint](constraint::BlockConstraint). Additionally to
//! those three primitives, a few more common Sudoku variants' rules are
//! provided, which can be combined into more exciting rule sets. Check out the
//! [constraint] module for more details and instructions on how to write your
//! own rules.
//!
//! # Solving Sudoku
//!
//! This crate offers a [Solver](solver::Solver) trait for structs that can
//! totally or partially solve Sudoku (that is, able to solve every Sudoku with
//! a unique solution or not). As a default implementation,
//! [BacktrackingSolver](solver::BacktrackingSolver) is provided, which can
//! solve every uniquely solveable Sudoku.
//!
//! To use it, first instantiate a Sudoku an then call
//! [Solver.solve](solver::Solver::solve) on a backtracking
//! solver (as it is a zero-sized struct, no instantiation is required).
//!
//! ```
//! use sudoku_variants::{Sudoku, SudokuGrid};
//! use sudoku_variants::constraint::DefaultConstraint;
//! use sudoku_variants::solver::{BacktrackingSolver, Solution, Solver};
//!
//! // The same Sudoku as in our previous example.
//! let sudoku = Sudoku::parse("2x2; , , ,4, ,4,3, , ,3, , , , ,1, ",
//!     DefaultConstraint).unwrap();
//! let solution = BacktrackingSolver.solve(&sudoku);
//!
//! // The solution we expect:
//! // ╔═══╤═══╦═══╤═══╗
//! // ║ 3 │ 1 ║ 2 │ 4 ║
//! // ╟───┼───╫───┼───╢
//! // ║ 2 │ 4 ║ 3 │ 1 ║
//! // ╠═══╪═══╬═══╪═══╣
//! // ║ 1 │ 3 ║ 4 │ 2 ║
//! // ╟───┼───╫───┼───╢
//! // ║ 4 │ 2 ║ 1 │ 3 ║
//! // ╚═══╧═══╩═══╧═══╝
//! let expected_solution_grid =
//!     SudokuGrid::parse("2x2;3,1,2,4,2,4,3,1,1,3,4,2,4,2,1,3").unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(Solution::Unique(expected_solution_grid), solution);
//! ```
//!
//! The backtracking solver can deal with any (correctly implemented)
//! constraint and type of Sudoku. If there is no solution, it will return
//! `Solution::Impossible` and if there are multiple solutions, it will reutrn
//! `Solution::Ambiguous`.
//!
//! ## Performance improvements
//!
//! Using pure backtracking can be an issue regarding performance. It is
//! possible to use heuristics, so-called
//! [Strategies][crate::solver::strategy::Strategy] that use logic to fill some
//! cells or remove some optinos. This can be much faster than pure
//! backtracking, but some experimentation is required. See the
//! [strategy](crate::solver::strategy) module for further information.
//!
//! # Generating Sudoku
//!
//! Probably the most interesting feature of this crate is the generation of
//! random Sudoku. This is done in two steps: generating a full grid using a
//! [Generator](generator::Generator) and then removing as many clues as
//! possible using a [Reducer](generator::Reducer).
//!
//! The generator needs a solver, which helps to reduce the search space for
//! valid grids, and a random number generator, for which we use the `Rng`
//! trait from the [rand](https://rust-random.github.io/rand/rand/index.html)
//! crate. The reducer needs the same, however its solver is used to define the
//! difficulty. Essentially, the reducer will generate a puzzle that is just
//! not too hard for the given solver, that is, if one more clue were removed,
//! the solver would be unable to solve it. An example of generating a minimal
//! puzzle (where no clues can be removed without losing uniqueness) is
//! provided below.
//!
//! ```
//! use sudoku_variants::constraint::DefaultConstraint;
//! use sudoku_variants::generator::{Generator, Reducer};
//! use sudoku_variants::solver::{BacktrackingSolver, Solution, Solver};
//!
//! // new_default yields a generator/reducer with a backtracking solver and
//! // rand::thread_rng()
//! let mut generator = Generator::new_default();
//! let mut reducer = Reducer::new_default();
//!
//! // Generate a full, 3x3 block Sudoku board with default rules.
//! let mut sudoku = generator.generate(3, 3, DefaultConstraint).unwrap();
//! assert!(sudoku.is_valid());
//!
//! // Remove as many clues as possible
//! reducer.reduce(&mut sudoku);
//!
//! let unique = match BacktrackingSolver.solve(&sudoku) {
//!     Solution::Unique(_) => true,
//!     _ => false
//! };
//! assert!(unique);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Defining a difficulty
//!
//! The above example removes digits as long as the resulting Sudoku is still
//! uniquely solveable. This may result in some very difficult Sudoku, since it
//! provides no guarantees as to *how* the Sudoku can be solved. To generate
//! less difficult Sudoku, you can provide a less powerful
//! [Solver](crate::solver::Solver), which has to be able to solve the reduced
//! Sudoku. See the [strategy](crate::solver::strategy) module for further
//! information.
//!
//! # Note regarding performance
//!
//! While generating ordinary, minimal Sudoku with this crate is doable within
//! a few seconds, more complicated rule sets which result in less necessary
//! clues or larger boards may result in performance issues. In any case, it is
//! strongly recommended to use at least `opt-level = 2` for approximately a
//! 28-fold performance improvement, even in tests that use Sudoku generation.
