Solver Translations
On the following pages are various language translations of the provided AlgorithmXSolver. In several cases, CodinGamers with significantly more language expertise than me have taken on the task of writing a translation and sharing their code. I owe each of them a debt of gratitude.
✅ Contributor Note — Future Translations
If you are planning to translate AlgorithmXSolver to another language, it is recommended that you review and base your work on the C++ implementation rather than the original Python version.
The original Python solver makes use of several Python-specific language features and reflects an earlier stage of the design. The C++ translation is more explicit about ownership, lifetimes, constraints, and performance considerations, and generally provides a clearer picture of the intended architecture.
For these reasons, the C++ version is a better reference when designing future translations.
Quality Guarantee
For each translation, either the author or I have completed several puzzles using the translation and feel confident in the functionality. I spent two years working with and refining my Python solver. Obviously, we can’t do that with each translation. However, I will make this pseudo guarantee:
If you run into issues with any of these translations, post a note in the CodinGame Forum's Algorithm X / DLX Thread and I feel confident the CodinGame community will do their best to get you the help you need.
