Writing a soluble-grid generator for Mines

Read Original

The article details the technical process behind generating Minesweeper grids that are always logically solvable. It explains why a simple mathematical rule is insufficient and describes implementing an in-game solver that simulates human deduction. The generator can brute-force random grids or make intelligent adjustments during solving to ensure solubility from the player's first click.
