xiangting

A library for calculation of deficiency number (a.k.a. xiangting number, 向聴数).

This library is based on the algorithm in Nyanten.
However, the following differences apply:

Supports both calculations that include and exclude melds (副露) when considering the four tiles in a hand.
Supports three-player mahjong.

Usage

The hand is represented by the number of each tile in an array of [u8; 34]. The correspondence between the index and the tile is shown in the table below.

Index	0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Tile	1m	2m	3m	4m	5m	6m	7m	8m	9m

Index	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17
Tile	1p	2p	3p	4p	5p	6p	7p	8p	9p

Index	18	19	20	21	22	23	24	25	26
Tile	1s	2s	3s	4s	5s	6s	7s	8s	9s

Index	27	28	29	30	31	32	33
Tile	East (1z)	South (2z)	West (3z)	North (4z)	White (5z)	Green (6z)	Red (7z)

use xiangting::calculate_replacement_number;

fn main() {
    // 123m456p789s11222z
    let hand_14: [u8; 34] = [
        1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // m
        0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, // p
        0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, // s
        2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // z
    ];

    let replacement_number = calculate_replacement_number(&hand_14, &None);
    assert_eq!(replacement_number.unwrap(), 0u8);
}

In the calculation for a hand with melds (副露), the meld tiles can be included or excluded in the counting of the tiles that exist in four copies within the hand.

If they are excluded (e.g., 天鳳 (Tenhou), 雀魂 (Mahjong Soul)), None should be specified for fulu_mianzi_list.

If they are included (e.g., World Riichi Championship, M.LEAGUE), the melds should be specified for fulu_mianzi_list.

use xiangting::{calculate_replacement_number, ClaimedTilePosition, FuluMianzi};

fn main() {
    // 123m1z (3 melds)
    let hand_4: [u8; 34] = [
        1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // m
        0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // p
        0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // s
        1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // z
    ];

    // 456p 7777s 111z
    let melds = [
        Some(FuluMianzi::Shunzi(12, ClaimedTilePosition::Low)),
        Some(FuluMianzi::Gangzi(24)),
        Some(FuluMianzi::Kezi(27)),
        None,
    ];

    let replacement_number_wo_melds = calculate_replacement_number(&hand_4, &None);
    assert_eq!(replacement_number_wo_melds.unwrap(), 1u8);

    let replacement_number_w_melds = calculate_replacement_number(&hand_4, &Some(melds));
    assert_eq!(replacement_number_w_melds.unwrap(), 2u8);
}

In three-player mahjong, the tiles from 2m (二萬) to 8m (八萬) do not exist. Additionally, melded sequences (明順子) cannot be used.

use xiangting::{calculate_replacement_number, calculate_replacement_number_3_player};

fn main() {
    // 1111m111122233z
    let hand_13: [u8; 34] = [
        4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // m
        0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // p
        0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, // s
        4, 3, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, // z
    ];

    let replacement_number_4p = calculate_replacement_number(&hand_13, &None);
    assert_eq!(replacement_number_4p.unwrap(), 2u8);

    let replacement_number_3p = calculate_replacement_number_3_player(&hand_13, &None);
    assert_eq!(replacement_number_3p.unwrap(), 3u8);
}
