GitHub - Haseeb-Qureshi/n-queens-visualizer: Visualizes solutions to the N-Queens problem, written in React & Flux

N-Queens Visualizer

A visual exploration of local search algorithms which generate solutions to the N-Queens problem. Featured on React Rocks.

Visualizes N-Queens problem using different local search algorithms
Created an action queue to process moves asynchronously without violating the Flux pattern
Uses custom-written easing function to simulate real-time speed modulation
Transmits minimum possible information within action dispatches, to minimize space & time costs

Backlog of features:

DONE Number queens
DONE Implement all methods (backtracking, brute-force permutations, random permutations, simulated annealing, and iterative repair)
DONE Speed bar
DONE Smooth out speed modulation
DONE Display number of iterations
DONE Fix iterative repair action overload bug
DONE Make brute force permutations show exact number of iterations
DONE Display temperature for simulated annealing
DONE Colorize temperature
DONE Make algorithm selection immediately seed board
DONE Slow down slowest speed
DONE Replace easing function with correct speed modulation using dynamic intervals
Pause and play buttons
Optimize parameters for simulated annealing (currently resolves 68% of the time)
Asterisk; mouseover iterations displays: number queens swapped, not total computations
Highlight attack paths
Animate movement of queens
Show animations for every reset
Make resizable from 4-20 N
Show text explaining each search method
Convert simulated annealing failure to modal
Guided tour through sequence of possible search strategies
