PvP Chain reaction game using Python

-

At last, I've taken time and ventured a little deeper into the Python language! I used the Tkinter package to develop a rip-off of an android game called chain-reaction. It's a simple multiplayer board game in which the first person to occupy all the blocks on the board or of the opponent(s) wins. Try downloading and playing the game with your friends, it's FUN!

Here's a video of the game I've developed(I've set the number of players to 4 and board dimensions are 6*8):



Coming to the coding, I actually enjoyed the process of writing code much more in Python compared to any other previous languages that I've used. Maybe it is due to the fact that it's the first high-level language that I got my hands on. I'd never worked with Tkinter package before. It was quite easy to understand and I was able to build the game in roughly in four hours. I think that just a little effort is enough for anyone to understand how to use the tkinter package.

Talking about the game it's quite simple to understand it if you play it. Simply speaking, if a block reaches its maximum capacity then it diffuses the contents to its neighbors(North, East, West, and South). A little bit knowledge about recursion can help you code the game with ease.

Here's the code for the game:

I could have used the random package to implement a bot(an opponent) that randomly selects tiles and make the game a little more interesting. But my aim was to just fiddle with the tkinter and I'm happy with the end result.

If you have a Python IDE go ahead and try to run the code and have fun :) (You can modify the code to adjust number of players and the dimensions of the board)

    What is the name of the package you imported? "tkinter" has like 8 different packages and I don't know which package to install in my repositories.
    Thanks!!!

      I don't remember installing anything extra. The tkinter library was there downloaded by default. I'm afraid I can't help you with your question. Just do trial and error :-)

Beginner's guide to Solving the N-Queens problem using backtracking method

-

This post serves as a good introduction to the backtracking method which is used widely in various types of problems to find a possible solution. Here we'll be seeing how to solve the classical N-Queens problem using backtracking method. Backtracking : The Wikipedia page  for Backtracking defines it as "a general algorithm in which, we try to incrementally build candidates to the solutions, and discard a candidate as soon as we get to know that the candidate cannot possibly be completed to a valid solution".  If that sounds complicated and confusing, don't worry! Let us understand it by running through a small example. Consider you are trapped in a haunted house with five rooms named A, B, C, D and E. Initially, you are in room A and you need to reach room E to exit the house. Below is an image of the rooms in the house. The arrows in the image indicate the directions in which you can move. For example, you can move to rooms B and C from A but, you

Developing Minesweeper using Java

It's been a while since I've posted anything on my blog. The reason being that lately, I've been learning new languages like Python and Java. Well anyways, I've taken the time to develop Minesweeper game using Java applets. This game also got GUI which I've created using the components provided by Java. Here are a few pictures of the game. Here's the video of my game: There are two classes in my game: Board class : This class provides the backend logic of building the board for the minesweeper game. This class has also got methods using which user can play the game on command prompt itself. I've commented out the methods required for running the game on cmd ( the * beside a method listed below denotes that the method was commented ). If you're interested in playing on cmd, fiddle around with invoking methods in the main method(create one!) and see if you can run it :). The various methods in Board class are: Board() *:  Constr
