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[src]

The search function.

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

fn get_cell_state(&self, coord: Coord) -> Option<State>[src]

Gets the state of a cell. Returns Err(()) if there is no such cell.

fn config(&self) -> &Config[src]

World configuration.

fn is_gen_rule(&self) -> bool[src]

Whether the rule is a Generations rule.

fn is_b0_rule(&self) -> bool[src]

Whether the rule contains B0.

In other words, whether a cell would become ALIVE in the next generation, if all its neighbors in this generation are dead.

fn cell_count_gen(&self, t: i32) -> u32[src]

Number of known living cells in some generation.

For Generations rules, dying cells are not counted.

fn cell_count(&self) -> u32[src]

Minumum number of known living cells in all generation.

For Generations rules, dying cells are not counted.

fn conflicts(&self) -> u64[src]

Number of conflicts during the search.

fn set_max_cell_count(&mut self, max_cell_count: Option<u32>)[src]

Set the max cell counts.

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

fn ser(&self) -> WorldSer[src]

Saves the world as a WorldSer, which can be easily serialized.

fn deser(&mut self, ser: &WorldSer) -> Result<(), Error>[src]

Restores the world from the WorldSer.

Provided methods

fn rle_gen(&self, t: i32) -> String[src]

Displays the whole world in some generation, in a mix of Plaintext and RLE format.

  • Dead cells are represented by .;
  • Living cells are represented by o for rules with 2 states, A for rules with more states;
  • Dying cells are represented by uppercase letters starting from B;
  • Unknown cells are represented by ?;
  • Each line is ended with $;
  • The whole pattern is ended with !.

fn plaintext_gen(&self, t: i32) -> String[src]

Displays the whole world in some generation in Plaintext format.

  • Dead cells are represented by .;
  • Living and Dying cells are represented by o;
  • Unknown cells are represented by ?.
