So I decided to write an application to solve the Zebra Puzzle, by solving
this type of problem in general. In Pharo, of course.
I worked out a few basic algorithms for making deductions and inferences,
and coded them, along with tests, in Pharo 8. Now I've reached the point of
having a
Having solved a number of these problems in my youth, I tried to solve this
one "by hand". But with 6 attributes of 5 properties each, the
"bookkeeping" task was too difficult to deal with while trying to find a
consistent solution.
It turns out that it's very easy to make an inconsistent
Recently, I came up with one such project that might work here, and I spent
some time prototyping it. The project is to create an application in Pharo
that can solve the "Zebra Puzzle".
What's the Zebra Puzzle? It's an example of a "constraint satisfaction
problem", which are also known as
tl;dr: I have some ideas about more advanced Pharo tutorials, and I have an
example that I would like to have reviewed/critiqued before I develop it any
further.
I've been thinking lately that it would be nice to expand the number of
Pharo tutorials we have available. But rather than (or along

Hello,
for executing it you will need the headless VM. If you are using
Pharo Launcher you can change the VM for that image in the
configuration combo box (The click on "Edit Configurations..."). If
you are using the zero-conf you can use "wget -O -
get.pharo.org/64/vmHeadlessLatest90 | bash"
