General description of things to do (later, hehe):
Add a smoother (less-dramatic) process to 'pass-over' words that don't fit in the puzzle & revisit them later (currently if this occurs, a break
statement is encountered and generate_crossword()
is called again.
Build write-out method to place file in a deliberate, conspicuous location in the correct format, etc.
Handle ingestion of answerBank
and size
- I'm not sure what the best way s, but a simple .ini
file can be used with Python's configparser
library.
Changed the input arguments to the main()
script for clarity: gridLength
and answerList
with defaults for testing ability.
Added some basic input validation (acknowledging that some may be performed 'up top').
I'm not exactly sure how the addition of input arguments to main() is affected by the entry-point handling at the end of the main.py
script (a common convention I've always used, but not entirely sure how it works):
if __name__ == '__main__':
main() # <--- Does this line need the input arguments? Not sure.
A potentially useful excerpt regarding its usage:
"When a Python file is executed, the interpreter sets a special variable called name to "main" if the file is being run as the main program. If the file is being imported as a module into another program, the name variable will be set to the name of the module.
The if name == 'main': statement checks if the current file is being run as the main program by comparing the value of name to the string "main". If the comparison is true, the main() function is called.
This approach is commonly used to provide a module with both a library interface (when it is imported as a module) and a command-line interface (when it is executed directly). By separating these two interfaces, the module can be used in different ways, making it more flexible and reusable."
The output file is written to ./python/output/crossword_glossary.json
