Nonogram (Painting by numbers) in Google CP Solver.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonogram ''' Nonograms or Paint by Numbers are picture logic puzzles in which cells in a grid have to be colored or left blank according to numbers given at the side of the grid to reveal a hidden picture. In this puzzle type, the numbers measure how many unbroken lines of filled-in squares there are in any given row or column. For example, a clue of '4 8 3' would mean there are sets of four, eight, and three filled squares, in that order, with at least one blank square between successive groups.

The Comet model (http://www.hakank.org/comet/nonogram_regular.co) was a major influence when writing this Google CP solver model.
I have also blogged about the development of a Nonogram solver in Comet using the regular constraint.
'Comet: Nonogram improved: solving problem P200 from 1:30 minutes to about 1 second' http://www.hakank.org/constraint_programming_blog/2009/03/comet_nonogram_improved_solvin_1.html
'Comet: regular constraint, a much faster Nonogram with the regular constraint, some OPL models, and more' http://www.hakank.org/constraint_programming_blog/2009/02/comet_regular_constraint_a_muc_1.html
Compare with the other models:
This model was created by Hakan Kjellerstrand ([email protected]) Also see my other Google CP Solver models: http://www.hakank.org/google_or_tools/
