[−][src]Trait rlifesrc_lib::Search

pub trait Search {
    fn search(&mut self, max_step: Option<u64>) -> Status;

    fn display_gen(&self, t: isize) -> String;

    fn config(&self) -> Config;

    fn cell_count_gen(&self, t: isize) -> usize;

    fn cell_count(&self) -> usize;

}

A trait for World.

So that we can switch between different rule types using trait objects.

Required methods

fn search(&mut self, max_step: Option<u64>) -> Status

The search function.

Returns Found if a result is found, None if such pattern does not exist, Searching if the number of steps exceeds max_step and no results are found.

fn display_gen(&self, t: isize) -> String

Displays the whole world in some generation.

  • Dead cells are represented by .;
  • Living cells are represented by O;
  • Unknown cells are represented by ?.

fn config(&self) -> Config

World configuration.

fn cell_count_gen(&self, t: isize) -> usize

Number of known living cells in some generation.

fn cell_count(&self) -> usize

Minumum number of known living cells in all generation.

fn conflicts(&self) -> u64

Number of conflicts during the search.

fn set_max_cell_count(&mut self, max_cell_count: Option<usize>)

Set the max cell counts.

Currently this is the only parameter that you can change during the search.
