Struct DiagonalsConstraint 

pub struct DiagonalsConstraint;

A Constraint which checks that there are no duplicates in each of the two diagonals ( ╲ and ╱ ).

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for DiagonalsConstraint

fn clone(&self) -> DiagonalsConstraint

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Constraint for DiagonalsConstraint

fn check_number( &self, grid: &SudokuGrid, column: usize, row: usize, number: usize, ) -> bool

Checks whether the given number would fit into the cell specified by column and row into the grid without violating this constraint. This function does not have to check whether number is actually a valid number for this grid (i.e. in the interval [1, size]). If you require this guarantee, use Sudoku::is_valid_number instead.

fn get_groups(&self, grid: &SudokuGrid) -> Vec<Group>

Gets a vector of all groups that are defined by this constraint. A group is a set of cells which may not contain repeated numbers. As an example, the BlockConstraint defines each block as a group. Some constraints, such as the KingsMoveConstraint, do not have groups. In this particular case, a cell removed by a kings-move to the top-left may be the same as one to the bottom-right, so the cells removed by a kings-move from any particular cell cannot form a group. Such constraints should return an empty vector here.

fn check(&self, grid: &SudokuGrid) -> bool

Checks whether the given SudokuGrid matches this constraint, that is, every cell matches this constraint. By default, this runs check_cell on every cell of the grid, which may be inefficient, so custom implementations may be advantageous.

fn check_cell(&self, grid: &SudokuGrid, column: usize, row: usize) -> bool

Checks whether the cell at the given position in the SudokuGrid fulfills the constraint. This is the same as calling check_number with the same coordinates and the number which is actually filled in that cell. If the cell is empty, this function always returns true.
