Safe cracking puzzle in Google CP Solver.

From the Oz Primer: http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~henz/projects/puzzles/digits/index.html ''' The code of Professor Smart's safe is a sequence of 9 distinct nonzero digits C1 .. C9 such that the following equations and inequations are satisfied:

    C4 - C6   =   C7

C1 * C2 * C3 = C8 + C9 C2 + C3 + C6 < C8 C9 < C8

and

C1 <> 1, C2 <> 2, ..., C9 <> 9

can you find the correct combination? '''

Compare with the following 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/

python
from ortools.constraint_solver import pywrapcp


def main():

  # Create the solver.
  solver = pywrapcp.Solver('Safe cracking puzzle')

  #
  # data
  #
  n = 9
  digits = list(range(1, n + 1))

  #
  # variables
  #

  LD = [solver.IntVar(digits, 'LD[%i]' % i) for i in range(n)]
  C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, C9 = LD

  #
  # constraints
  #
  solver.Add(solver.AllDifferent(LD))

  solver.Add(C4 - C6 == C7)
  solver.Add(C1 * C2 * C3 == C8 + C9)
  solver.Add(C2 + C3 + C6 < C8)
  solver.Add(C9 < C8)
  for i in range(n):
    solver.Add(LD[i] != i + 1)

  #
  # search and result

  db = solver.Phase(LD, solver.INT_VAR_DEFAULT, solver.INT_VALUE_DEFAULT)

  solver.NewSearch(db)

  num_solutions = 0

  while solver.NextSolution():
    num_solutions += 1
    print('LD:', [LD[i].Value() for i in range(n)])

  solver.EndSearch()
