Mastermind Numeric Solver v1.6R by AR Mackwani
This program is based on the heuristic algorithm by RT Rosu with a major modification that the search is not totally random but utilizes the results from the previous guesses to come up with the next guess.
Demo Mode: This plays 10 games with random combinations of colors and positions with only a 2-sec pause between games. Manual Code is cancelled.
Setting Up A Game: Enter the number of colors and positions that you want the secret code to use. Select Display, Run = 1 and click OK. The game is displayed. Click OK again to see the next game.
Setting Your Own Secret Code: Set the options as above. Select Manual Code and enter your code in the box below and click OK. The game is displayed.
Checking More Than One Game: Set the options as above but with Runs>1. Click OK. The performance statistics is also displayed. The time shown is the actual processing time for the algorithm using Fast Search set at 0.8% for c>5 and p>5; it does not include the delay required for visual display. Number of guesses is for the total fast search cycle.
CANCEL lets you get out. You can restart anytime by clicking the Reload or Refresh button on your browser.
