pairwise

What it is

Using finite projective plane to generate card (maybe video) games.

Running

Run with go run . Right now uses Go 1.17 but 1.18 just came out, I'm just learning Go really, so I don't think there should be conflicts unless Go insists you use 1.17 and you only have 1.18, idk.

The (commented-out) texmaker part both requires an external library, and seeks to write a test file into etc/test.pdf -- shouldn't be a problem unless you uncomment and try to run the texmaker portion.

Notes

There are flags in main.go, for printing and formatting. The formatting is for outputting in a form easy to paste into the (currently hardcoded) pairwise_solver repo (TODO: link)

Fracmaker

The (commented-out) portion(s) of fracmaker seek to create a set of cards with equivalent fractions on each. Lucky gift from the universe, that there are 31 (n^2 + n + 1, for n=5) irreducible fractions from 1/2 to 9/10.

Next

• decide on TeX or SVG
• implement one, according to some printing process, export pdf
• art
• write a solver in Go instead of using pairwise_solver (TODO: link)
