The mission of this assignment is to implement a “Sudoku game board” and interact with user using a small set of commands that enable to initialize the game board. You program must permit user to see the game board, swap rows, columns, or areas of the board for randomization, verify the correctness of the board content, and erase values of the generated game board.
User can enter the following show, swap, verify, erase, and quit command:
• show will display the board content
• swap will exchange some randomly generated row/column position with another row/column position – note that a simple swap only occurs within a permissible range (see example below)
• verify will check all the consistencies enforced for the Sudoku game and print out which places are wrong
• erase will pick up a random cell of the Sudoku board and place that cell as ‘-‘ mark visible to user
• quit will stop execution
• other input must show an error message and ask to reenter a correct command
Implementation requires you to utilize a structure holding “vector<vector<short>>” to represent the 9 x 9 game board. The main program is a mere loop to dispatch the execution of each read command. This submission will be somewhat equivalent to the midterm exam of this course work. There will be no extension of due as in the previous assignments.
The next example tells what are required to realize:
