Local search algoritms implementation in Rust to Emscripten

This is part of a Work in progress I'm doing for an Artificial Intelligence course.

In particular, I can't promise the algorithms are correct, since I've only done this for a few days, though I hope so!

Also, the interface is quite ugly. I'm sorry.

The program consists of a Rust file compiled to emscripten, an index.html file, and a TypeScript file that compiles to JavaScript for the application event handling UI.

Some known gotchas:

• It's ugly (for now at least, I haven't bothered a lot in designing it, I just wanted a damn chess on screen).

• Only shows the best state for Local Beam Search and Genetic Algorithm.

• Could be more memory efficient (just read the TODOs in src/main.rs).

• Should be more modular. I did it initially with Makefiles and calling rustc by hand, but cargo and dependencies just worked out of the box, and build.rs's flexibility is all I needed! Anyway, that's the explanation for the monofile.

Requirements

• Rust nightly.
• TypeScript compiler: npm install -g typescript.
• Emscripten toolchain (Varies by system).

To test the code you only need Rust nightly. Running cargo test should work.

For running it:

$ cargo build --target asmjs-unknown-emscripten --release
$ firefox ./target/asmjs-unknown-emscripten/release/index.html
