Crate desdemona

Command line Othello and simulation sandbox!

The desdemona crate provides a library and binaries for playing, simulating, and developing Othello games and strategies, based on the official rules.

To play a game on the command line, install the crate and run it:

$ cargo install desdemona
...
$ desdemona

To play and print out a completely random game, you could also do something like this:

use desdemona::strategies::*;
use desdemona::Game;

// create a new game
let mut game = Game::new();

// use the Random strategy to solve it
Random {}.solve(&mut game);

// print the state of the game to the console
println!("{}", game);

// print out a transcript of all of the moves from the game
let plays: Vec<String> = game.transcript.iter().map(|p| format!("{}", p)).collect();
println!("Transcript: {}", plays.join(","));
