# The Freecell Solver Repository Root README

[Freecell Solver](https://fc-solve.shlomifish.org/) is an open source
(distributed under the MIT/Expat licence) library, written in C, for attempting
to solve several variants of card Solitaire/Patience, including
[Freecell](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeCell) ,
[Baker’s Game](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker%27s_Game) ,
[Seahaven Towers](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seahaven_Towers_%28solitaire%29)
, and
[Simple Simon](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Simon_%28solitaire) .
Also contained are several command-line programs that use it, and the original
project also span some other code for testing and for support.

# Repository structure

## [fc-solve/source/](./fc-solve/source/)

This contains the source of the solver itself. One can use CMake to build it.

## [cpan/Games-Solitaire-Verify/Games-Solitaire-Verify](./cpan/Games-Solitaire-Verify/Games-Solitaire-Verify/)

This is the Games-Solitaire-Verify CPAN module. For more information see:

* [Homepage](https://fc-solve.shlomifish.org/verify-code/)
* [MetaCPAN](https://metacpan.org/release/Games-Solitaire-Verify)

## [Task-FreecellSolver-Testing](./cpan/Task-FreecellSolver-Testing/)

This is a CPAN module for installing the various test dependencies that
are found on CPAN.

## [cpan/Task-FreecellSolver-Testing-MultiConfig](./cpan/Task-FreecellSolver-Testing-MultiConfig/)

This is a CPAN module for installing the various test dependencies that
are found on CPAN. More comprehensive.

## [fc-solve/arch\_doc](./fc-solve/arch\_doc/)

The Freecell Solver Architecture Document. Somewhat out-of-date, but may
be studied for general enlightenment.

## [fc-solve/presets](./fc-solve/presets/)

Some code that is used in order to calculate the built-in command-line
presets, like “-l good-intentions” or “-l maliciously-obscure”. Not very
documented. This code is written in parts in Perl, Bash and Mono.NET.

## [fc-solve/rejects](./fc-solve/rejects/)

Contains code that is no longer used.

## [fc-solve/docs](./fc-solve/docs/)

Contains various documents that are not part of the main source distribution.
Mostly specifications and planning documents.

## [fc-solve/benchmarks](./fc-solve/benchmarks/)

Logs of various benchmarks of the code.

# How to use the library

The external API, which is provided by
[freecell-solver/fcs_user.h](fc-solve/source/include/freecell-solver/fcs_user.h) ,
[freecell-solver/fcs_cl.h](fc-solve/source/include/freecell-solver/fcs_cl.h) and
some other headers, is not documented, but it corresponds to the command line
interface that is
documented in
the [USAGE](http://fc-solve.shlomifish.org/docs/distro/USAGE.html) and
the [README](http://fc-solve.shlomifish.org/docs/distro/README.html) documents,
has some examples in the code, and should not be hard to use.
