/*
 * range.c: implementation of the Nikoli game 'Kurodoko' / 'Kuromasu'.
 */

/*
 * Puzzle rules: the player is given a WxH grid of white squares, some
 * of which contain numbers. The goal is to paint some of the squares
 * black, such that:
 *
 *  - no cell (err, cell = square) with a number is painted black
 *  - no black cells have an adjacent (horz/vert) black cell
 *  - the white cells are all connected (through other white cells)
 *  - if a cell contains a number n, let h and v be the lengths of the
 *    maximal horizontal and vertical white sequences containing that
 *    cell.  Then n must equal h + v - 1.

/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 * The solver subsystem.
 *
 * The solver is used for two purposes:
 *  - To solve puzzles when the user selects `Solve'.
 *  - To test solubility of a grid as clues are being removed from it
 *    during the puzzle generation.
 *
 * It supports the following ways of reasoning:
 *
 *  - A cell adjacent to a black cell must be white.
 *
 *  - If painting a square black would bisect the white regions, that
 *    square is white (by finding biconnected components' cut points)
 *
 *  - A cell with number n, covering at most k white squares in three
 *    directions must white-cover n-k squares in the last direction.
 *
 *  - A cell with number n known to cover k squares, if extending the
 *    cover by one square in a given direction causes the cell to
 *    cover _more_ than n squares, that extension cell must be black.
 *
 *    (either if the square already covers n, or if it extends into a
 *    chunk of size > n - k)
 *
 *  - Recursion.  Pick any cell and see if this leads to either a
 *    contradiction or a solution (and then act appropriately).
 *
 *
 * TODO:
 *
 * (propagation upper limit)
 *  - If one has two numbers on the same line, the smaller limits the
 *    larger.  Example: in |b|_|_|8|4|_|_|b|, only two _'s can be both
 *    white and connected to the "8" cell; so that cell will propagate
 *    at least four cells orthogonally to the displayed line (which is
 *    better than the current "at least 2").
 *
 * (propagation upper limit)
 *  - cells can't propagate into other cells if doing so exceeds that
 *    number.  Example: in |b|4|.|.|2|b|, at most one _ can be white;
 *    otherwise, the |2| would have too many reaching white cells.
 *
 * (propagation lower and upper limit)
 *  - `Full Combo': in each four directions d_1 ... d_4, find a set of
 *    possible propagation distances S_1 ... S_4.  For each i=1..4,
 *    for each x in S_i: if not exists (y, z, w) in the other sets
 *    such that (x+y+z+w+1 == clue value): then remove x from S_i.
 *    Repeat until this stabilizes.  If any cell would contradict

 * Puzzle generation
 *
 * Generating kurodoko instances is rather straightforward:
 *
 *  - Start with a white grid and add black squares at randomly chosen
 *    locations, unless colouring that square black would violate
 *    either the adjacency or connectedness constraints.
 *
 *  - For each white square, compute the number it would contain if it
 *    were given as a clue.
 *
 *  - From a starting point of "give _every_ white square as a clue",
 *    for each white square (in a random order), see if the board is
 *    solvable when that square is not given as a clue.  If not, don't
 *    give it as a clue, otherwise do.
 *
 * This never fails, but it's only _almost_ what I do.  The real final
 * step is this:
 *
 *  - From a starting point of "give _every_ white square as a clue",
 *    first remove all clues that are two-way rotationally symmetric
 *    to a black square.  If this leaves the puzzle unsolvable, throw
 *    it out and try again.  Otherwise, remove all _pairs_ of clues
 *    (that are rotationally symmetric) which can be removed without
 *    rendering the puzzle unsolvable.
 *
 * This can fail even if one only removes the black and symmetric
 * clues; indeed it happens often (avg. once or twice per puzzle) when
 * generating 1xN instances.  (If you add black cells they must be in
 * the end, and if you only add one, it's ambiguous where).

/* Definition: a puzzle instance is _good_ if:
 *  - it has a unique solution
 *  - the solver can find this solution without using recursion
 *  - the solution contains at least one black square
 *  - the clues are 2-way rotationally symmetric
 *
 * (the idea being: the generator can not output any _bad_ puzzles)
 *
 * Theorem: validate_params, when full != 0, discards exactly the set
 * of parameters for which there are _no_ good puzzle instances.
 *
 * Proof: it's an immediate consequence of the five lemmas below.
 *
 * Observation: not only do puzzles on non-tiny grids exist, the
 * generator is pretty fast about coming up with them.  On my pre-2004
 * desktop box, it generates 100 puzzles on the highest preset (16x11)
 * in 8.383 seconds, or <= 0.1 second per puzzle.
 *
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Lemma: On a 1x1 grid, there are no good puzzles.
 *
 * Proof: the one square can't be a clue because at least one square
 * is black.  But both a white square and a black square satisfy the
 * solution criteria, so the puzzle is ambiguous (and hence bad).
 *
 * Lemma: On a 1x2 grid, there are no good puzzles.
 *
 * Proof: let's name the squares l and r.  Note that there can be at
 * most one black square, or adjacency is violated.  By assumption at
 * least one square is black, so let's call that one l.  By clue
 * symmetry, neither l nor r can be given as a clue, so the puzzle
 * instance is blank and thus ambiguous.
 *
 * Corollary: On a 2x1 grid, there are no good puzzles.
 * Proof: rotate the above proof 90 degrees ;-)
 *
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Lemma: On a 2x2 grid, there are no soluble puzzles with 2-way
 * rotational symmetric clues and at least one black square.
 *
 * Proof: Let's name the squares a, b, c, and d, with a and b on the
 * top row, a and c in the left column.  Let's consider the case where
 * a is black.  Then no other square can be black: b and c would both
 * violate the adjacency constraint; d would disconnect b from c.
 *
 * So exactly one square is black (and by 4-way rotation symmetry of
 * the 2x2 square, it doesn't matter which one, so let's stick to a).
 * By 2-way rotational symmetry of the clues and the rule about not
 * painting numbers black, neither a nor d can be clues.  A blank
 * puzzle would be ambiguous, so one of {b, c} is a clue; by symmetry,
 * so is the other one.
 *
 * It is readily seen that their clue value is 2.  But "a is black"
 * and "d is black" are both valid solutions in this case, so the
 * puzzle is ambiguous (and hence bad).
 *
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Lemma: On a wxh grid with w, h >= 1 and (w > 2 or h > 2), there is
 * at least one good puzzle.
 *
 * Proof: assume that w > h (otherwise rotate the proof again).  Paint
 * the top left and bottom right corners black, and fill a clue into
 * all the other squares.  Present this board to the solver code (or
 * player, hypothetically), except with the two black squares as blank
 * squares.
 *
 * For an Nx1 puzzle, observe that every clue is N - 2, and there are
 * N - 2 of them in one connected sequence, so the remaining two
 * squares can be deduced to be black, which solves the puzzle.
 *
 * For any other puzzle, let j be a cell in the same row as a black
 * cell, but not in the same column (such a cell doesn't exist in 2x3
 * puzzles, but we assume w > h and such cells exist in 3x2 puzzles).
 *
 * Note that the number of cells in axis parallel `rays' going out
 * from j exceeds j's clue value by one.  Only one such cell is a
 * non-clue, so it must be black.  Similarly for the other corner (let
 * j' be a cell in the same row as the _other_ black cell, but not in
 * the same column as _any_ black cell; repeat this argument at j').
 *
 * This fills the grid and satisfies all clues and the adjacency
 * constraint and doesn't paint on top of any clues.  All that is left
 * to see is connectedness.
 *
 * Observe that the white cells in each column form a single connected
 * `run', and each column contains a white cell adjacent to a white
 * cell in the column to the right, if that column exists.
 *
 * Thus, any cell in the left-most column can reach any other cell:
 * first go to the target column (by repeatedly going to the cell in
 * your current column that lets you go right, then going right), then
 * go up or down to the desired cell.
 *
 * As reachability is symmetric (in undirected graphs) and transitive,
 * any cell can reach any left-column cell, and from there any other
 * cell.
