So nice! Do you create them entirely algorithmically, or do you use the solver just to verify that every date is possible?

- peterpuzzle 1y agoI wrote 2 solvers in Python. One that loops through all possible dates and searches for a solution. And one that loops through all solutions and checks if they form a date or not. And luckily both gave the same answers.
- drivebyhooting 1y agoHow did you select the piece shapes to ensure there was always a solution?
- peterpuzzle 1y agoActually I tried a lot of different combinations of piece shapes to find the "hardest" set of pieces that can still solve all possible dates. "Hard" is subjective, but I mean pieces with multiple protrusions.
