XML Board Specifications

An example for the Battleship edu.rpi.legup.puzzle demonstrates the proper format for XML files to be read in. Puzzles have particular x and y values associated with a location of each puzzleElement. The board size dictates the square size of the board. Currently LEGUP supports Battleship, Fillapix, LightUp, Masyu, Nurikabe, Sudoku, and Treetent puzzles.

<edu.rpi.legup.Legup>
    <edu.rpi.legup.puzzle qualifiedClassName="edu.rpi.legup.puzzle.battleship.BattleShip">
        <board size="10">
            <puzzleElement>
                <puzzleElement value="1" x="2" y="0"/>
                <puzzleElement value="1" x="6" y="0"/>
                <puzzleElement value="2" x="1" y="1"/>
                <puzzleElement value="-1" x="8" y="1"/>
                <puzzleElement value="-1" x="2" y="2"/>
            </puzzleElement>
        </board>
    </edu.rpi.legup.puzzle>
</edu.rpi.legup.Legup>

Element values are dependent on the type of edu.rpi.legup.puzzle. This is specified in each edu.rpi.legup.puzzle's documentation.
