Is the algorithm for solving 8-puzzle unsolvable?

Is the algorithm for solving 8-puzzle unsolvable?

So far as I can tell, the algorithm works (on simple instances of 8-puzzle), but is extremely slow for complex starting states (order of 100 seconds), and practically unsolvable with 15 tiles. I know finding the optimal solution is hard but I think I may be using the language in an efficient way here.

Why is the puzzleexists function slow down in C + +?

My main point of concern is the puzzleExists () function, which determines whether the created puzzle already exists in the list and should therefore be dropped. Currently the algorithm slows down significantly as it has to check all the previous puzzles for duplicates.

What’s the algorithm for solving an 8 tile sliding puzzle?

Currently the algorithm slows down significantly as it has to check all the previous puzzles for duplicates. Advice on how to aproach this would be appreciated. It’s a linear search over the array currentRoute: O (n) comparisons where n is the length of the current route.

How to use 8-puzzle solver and tree visualizer?

8 puzzle solver and tree visualizer. Supports breadth-first, uniform-cost, depth-first, iterative-deepening, greedy-best and A* search algorithms. 1 2

What to do if puzzles freeze or move slowly?

What to do if puzzles freeze/move slowly/ or pieces are jerky? If you have freezing problems while solving puzzles or puzzle pieces are jerky or move slowly, please try to turn off Location for Magic Puzzles app in Settings on your device.

Is there an algorithm for solving a 15 tile puzzle?

I am trying to find the optimal solution for a given 15-puzzle. So far as I can tell, the algorithm works (on simple instances of 8-puzzle), but is extremely slow for complex starting states (order of 100 seconds), and practically unsolvable with 15 tiles.

How to improve Python 8 puzzle and solver?

I wrote a simple 8-Puzzle and solver and am interested in seeing how it might be improved. Please let me know if any style or design changes might enhance the readability/performance of my code.
