[gecode-users] constraint with matrix

[Gustavo Gutierrez]

Hi Manel,

I think you want something that looks like this:

int n = 8;
int m = 10;
IntVarArray a(*this,n*m,0,1); // Array of n*m boolean variables
Matrix<IntVarArray> mat(x,n,m); // Matrix "view" of the array a

Now, to post a constraint on every row in the matrix you can use the method
row of the Matrix class. That will return you exactly what you need. For
instance, to post that the row i has pairwise distinct values:

distinct(*this,mat.row(i));

Be careful, that is just an example that is (probably) not going to work
because of the use of boolean variables. In any case you will find more
information on section 7.2 in MPG about using Matrix.

Regards,
Gustavo
