Water bucket challenge

Build an application that solves the Water Jug Riddle for dynamic inputs (X, Y, Z). The simulation should have a UI (if SPA) to display state changes for each state for each jug (Empty, Full or Partially Full).

You have an X-gallon and a Y-gallon jug that you can fill from a lake. (Assume lake has unlimited amount of water.) By using only an X-gallon and Y-gallon jug (no third jug), measure Z gallons of water.

GOALS

  1. Measure Z gallons of water in the most efficient way.
  2. Build a UI where a user can enter any input for X, Y, Z and see the solution.
  3. If no solution, display “No Solution”.
