rb-martian-robots

A Clojure project designed to solve the rb martian robot problem.

Notes for rb

Basic entry point via a main function. KISS for now.
- Would use https://github.com/clojure/tools.cli for a more sophisticated command line entry point.
Keeping template License.
I'm not making provisions for corrupt input (that does not conform to constraints provided).
I have probably spend a little more than 3 hours on this.
Please note the tests.
I adopted a pure functional style here, without using types or records (so as to explore the solution space quickly).
RAM and integer numeric limits are the only limitations I can think of.
This solution is not optimal in RAM utilisation. Here, RAM usage scales with robots and their instructions. Could be made to scale with only world (Mars) size.
Some tests left as TODOs.

java

Single lein based run:

lein run <input-filename> <output-filename>

or build a java jar file with:

lein uberjar

and run jar artifact with:

java -jar target/rb-martian-robots-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT-standalone.jar <input-filename> <output-filename>

DONE parse file
DONE business logic breakdown
- DONE rotation
- DONE Moving
- DONE Falling off edge
- DONE leave scent
DONE problem representation
DONE tests in representation space
DONE processing flow
DONE write output file
DONE build uberjar
DONE test against sample data with uberjar
Break up single core file into namespaces
