GardenEncoding-Qt-GUI

Univeristy C++ project in Qt GUI

Utility

Program encodes a field of objects (here radishes) into short code.

Decoding comes in opposite way.

Description

Field is represented as square, which side is equal 2^n.

In manual mode n can be from 1 to 6.

In field modes n can be from 1 to 15(this value may be heigher but calcualtions becomes slower).

Algorithm

To code a field we follow some rules:

  • Start from the biggest square with 2^n side, if on all places are "1" write 1 to the code, analogously if all places are empty write 0 to code.
  • If not all places are the same -> write # to code and run alg recusively for 4 squares with 2^(n-1) side
  • Stop when square has side equal to 2

3 ways of usage

  • Manual

    In this mode you can click on the radishes to change the field appearance. Also you can write code in edit text.

  • Files with multiple fields/codes

    Reads fields or codes from file -> saves result to file and show it in GUI

  • Files with one field/code

Example

File with field should look like:

  • The first line is the power
  • Next lines should emit field layout
2
1100
1100
1111
1111

The output will be:

  • The first character is the power
  • Then space and code
2 #1011

File with multifields should look like:

  • The first line is the power
  • Next lines should emit field layout
  • Enter and repeat
2
1100
1100
1111
1111

1
00
11

1
00
00

The output will be:

  • The first character is the power
  • Then space and code
  • Enter and repeat
2 #1011
1 #0011
1 0
