I have a script to solve a Sudoku with size= 9*9 i have 81 variables and i define the rules for them,
How can change this code to solve a sudoku with any size? for example for a sudoku 16*16, the rules will be for subsquares 4*4.
go(L) :-
L=[A1,A2,A3,A4,A5,A6,A7,A8,A9,
B1,B2,B3,B4,B5,B6,B7,B8,B9,

G1,G2,G3,G4,G5,G6,G7,G8,G9,
H1,H2,H3,H4,H5,H6,H7,H8,H9,
I1,I2,I3,I4,I5,I6,I7,I8,I9],
fd_domain(L,1,9),
fd_alldifferent([A1,A2,A3,A4,A5,A6,A7,A8,A9]),

should i write another script or just i can change this one? Thanks,
The code will need a rewrite to work for a general case. It is currently completely hard-coded for all the dimensions, so it can't be just tweaked to generalize it.
Here is an example to show you how you can use maplist
as a tool for a problem like this. It is not a complete solution to your problem, but should get you started.
% Auxiliary predicates that will be maplist-friendly (the list is the last argument)
%
length_(N, L) :- length(L, N).
fd_domain_(Min, Max, L) :- fd_domain(L, Min, Max).
constrained_matrix(N, Matrix) :-
length(Matrix, N), % Matrix has N elements
maplist(length_(N), Matrix), % Each element of Matrix has N elements
maplist(fd_domain_(1, N), Matrix), % The domain of each sublist is 1 to N
maplist(fd_all_different, Matrix), % Each sublist must have elements all different
maplist(fd_labeling, Matrix).
And run a query like this:
| ?- constrained_matrix(3, L).
L = [[1,2,3],[1,2,3],[1,2,3]] ? ;
L = [[1,2,3],[1,2,3],[1,3,2]] ? ;
L = [[1,2,3],[1,2,3],[2,1,3]] ? ;
L = [[1,2,3],[1,2,3],[2,3,1]] ? ;
...
As you can see, the solution set is all 3x3 matrices which have rows with unique elements, but columns can be anything. You can add more constraints by writing/using Prolog predicates that can transpose a matrix (interchange rows versus columns in Matrix
) and use maplist
again to constrain the columns. You can add even more constraints for subsquares as needed (write a predicate to extract a submatrix, for example, and make good use of maplist
).
