First, you must install ortools package in this colab.

python
%pip install ortools

Rogo puzzle solver in Google CP Solver.

From http://www.rogopuzzle.co.nz/ ''' The object is to collect the biggest score possible using a given number of steps in a loop around a grid. The best possible score for a puzzle is given with it, so you can easily check that you have solved the puzzle. Rogo puzzles can also include forbidden squares, which must be avoided in your loop.
