And you should have one stack to keep saved states not new each time or I do not understand what you are doing. Did you do your algorithm by hand for some simple end game … Re: Triangle / Peg Solitaire Solver 12 Years Ago by Gribouillis I don't have the time to study your code now (the whole program could be useful) but I think it could be a use case for this snippet that I wrote some weeks ago [url]http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/python/code/395270[/url] . See if it applies to your problem.

Add a print … Re: Triangle / Peg Solitaire Solver 12 Years Ago by woooee Is "board" a class instance with a function named "game_end" or some other container, as a class instance can not be tested, but only a container in that class can contain moves. Perhaps you should include the end_game function as well as the code that creates the instance of the class board.

First off your using GUI so make sure you have a … Re: Text based solitaire game for windows and linux 14 Years Ago by _Nestor One line of needs to be changed. In the print deck function of Deck.cpp the .GetBlackjack function should be removed as the function no longer exists Re: Recursion problems in solitaire 13 Years Ago by TrustyTony I think you have infinite loop with recursions, as you do not return the result of the recursive calls. Re: Recursion problems in solitaire 13 Years Ago by patrick k Ok. Does that mean that the problem will be fixed simply by making sure to return a value with each call? Re: Recursion problems in solitaire 13 Years Ago by TrustyTony You should simpify also your control structure, let's say call in line 69 returns value 1 or 0, what happens then. You seem to do the iteration both with while and recursion, write down your algorithm and check the logic. Test with almost finished pack of cards (end game) by hand (both before writing the new version of the function and after … Re: Recursion problems in solitaire 13 Years Ago by patrick k Recursion is not a requirement. My only question if I use something other than recursion is how to ensure that the function can continue testing. The use of the while loops is mainly to reposition the x and y pointers so that it is set up for the next function call. Is there a way that I could modify them so that I could avoid the recursion … Re: Recursion problems in solitaire 13 Years Ago by patrick k I came up with an idea that might have some potential, but it isn't working the way I thought it would. As opposed to recursively calling the function, I had the function return a -1 where I previously had the recursive calls. Then I changed the game function so that whenever it received a -1, it called the test function again. I think this should … Re: Recursion problems in solitaire 13 Years Ago by patrick k I looked at it, and I think it could help some. There are a few things I don't quite understand about it though. The most complicated part of what I have so far seems to be moving the pointers after some cards have been taken out. I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that instead of doing that the way I did, the Python program you have deleted the …
