rusthello

This project is archived, it is now included in https://github.com/samonzeweb/rusthello-wasm .

Purpose

Rusthello is an implementation of the Othello (or Reversi) game, whose goal is to practice a little Rust.

It's a learning project, some parts are quick & dirty, tests are sometimes limited, and some features are used for the sole purpose of... using them (Cell, feature flag, ...).

Setup

Install Rust toolchain if needed : https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

Fetch the source code :

git clone https://github.com/samonzeweb/rusthello.git
cd rusthello

Build and run

Run :

cargo build --release

The standalone executable will be here : target/release/rusthello.

To execute the game you have to give your color, and the depth of exploration for the virtual player (deeper = slower), ie :

target/release/rusthello black 6

Usage :

Usage : ./rusthello color depth
  color : 'black' or 'white'
  depth : 4 .. 10 (more than 8 could be slow)

Run in debug mode

Exemple :

cargo run -- black 6

Test

Install the Rust toolchain and clone the repository as described in the build part.

Fast tests : cargo test

All tests (slower) : cargo test --features alphabetavsminimax

All tests, showing stats for the minimax vs alphabeta one : cargo test --features alphabetavsminimax -- --nocapture
