RegEx Crossword - Sudoku-like Regular Expression Puzzles
- rtpg 13y agoNeat little game. One suggestion I have though: if the puzzle doesn't validate, signal the lines that don't validate properly.
- ceph_ 13y agoAgree. Also, the check mark indicating validation is broken on iOS
- JacobJans 13y agoWow, this is great. I'm shocked that I am finally enjoying something related to regular expressions.
- audreyt 13y agoThe regex-genex SMT constraint solver ( previously covered in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2579783 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2579783 ), as demonstrated by @LeventErkok ( https://gist.github.com/LeventErkok/4942496 https://gist.github.com/LeventErkok/4942496 ), is pretty good at solving this kind of puzzles. :-)
- MichaelAza 13y agoI tried to solve these with regular expressions. Now I have two crosswords.
- brudgers 13y agoI struggle with regular expressions, now I have many cross words.
- acrooks 13y agoFun game. Only thing I can suggest is a way to rotate the puzzle so we don't have to crane our necks / rotate monitors.
- NatCrodo 13y agoTrue. You read my mind.
- calebegg 13y agoHere's a really enjoyable regex crossword from, as I recall, the MIT Mystery Hunt: http://www.coinheist.com/rubik/a_regular_crossword/grid.pdf http://www.coinheist.com/rubik/a_regular_crossword/grid.pdf
- michaelmior 13y agoThis is awesome!
- brbcoding 13y agoCool project... I always like the gratification of fake awards, but I'm not sure that yours are actually working... After completing the tutorial, I was informed that I had earned the "baby steps" badge... When going into my achievements however, it still has the `.unearned` class on that badge.
