README

Rush Hour is a tiny sliding board game played on a board of 6x6 squares(it can be larger). The objective in the game is to free the red car from the surrounding traffic by sliding the cars out of the way onto free squares until the red car can drive out of the exit on the right side of the board. Note that cars can only go forward of reverse, not to the side. Use google or this video for an impression.

Loading a Board

There two ways to load a board.

1. From an array

$board_array = [
    [".", ".", ".", ".", "A", "A"],
    [".", ".", "B", "B", "C", "C"],
    ["r", "r", ".", ".", "E", "F"],
    ["G", "G", "H", "H", "E", "F"],
    [".", ".", ".", "I", "E", "F"],
    [".", ".", ".", "I", "J", "J"],
];

$board_loader = new BoardLoader($board_array);
$board = $board_loader->getBoard();

2. From a file

use RushHourSolver\BoardLoader;

$board_loader = new BoardLoader();
$board_loader->loadBoardFromFile("/path/to/board.txt");
$board = $board_loader->getBoard();

Solving board

use RushHourSolver\BoardSolver;
use RushHourSolver\Enums\Direction;
use RushHourSolver\Enums\Orientation;

$board_solver = new BoardSolver($board);
$solutions = $board_solver->getSolution();

foreach ($solutions as $index => $solution) {
    $vehicle = $solution[0];
    $direction = $solution[1];

    if ($vehicle->getOrientation() === Orientation::HORIZONTAL && $direction === Direction::FORWARD) {
        $direction_name = "Right";
    } elseif ($vehicle->getOrientation() === Orientation::HORIZONTAL && $direction === Direction::BACKWARD) {
        $direction_name = "Left";
    } elseif ($vehicle->getOrientation() === Orientation::VERTICAL && $direction === Direction::FORWARD) {
        $direction_name = "Down";
    } elseif ($vehicle->getOrientation() === Orientation::VERTICAL && $direction === Direction::BACKWARD) {
        $direction_name = "Up";
    } else {
        $direction_name = "Unknown";
    }

    echo "\n" . $index + 1 . ": " . $vehicle->getName() . " -> " . $direction_name;
}
