Fractionated Morse Auto-Solver issues #410
Comments
I'm going to need your testcase to debug this. |
I found it while writing a test for a tournament so I can provide it here in an update next week or I can send it to you by whatever means will keep it private until after the tournament. |
You can email it to codebusters@toebes.com which only goes to the developers who can keep it private. |
I did email it but thought it might be helpful for whoever takes the task not to have to sort through emails to put two and two together now that we are past our tournament. Not a nudge in any way, just putting everything in one place.
Would like to extend my gratitude to the entire team for their work on this tool. |
I am not sure how to tackle feature request #5 above from a UI standpoint. Please open a separate feature issue to keep it 'on the list'. |
Circling back to this one: Today I'm working on this quote: I used some magic to make some fog laugh. It was mist tickle. Here are some places where the auto-solver made decisions I didn't understand:
This seems to have follow-on consequences for the possibilities it predicts for the letters between K and N - a human solver would know these have to stay within the first half of the alphabet. Same quote, key: FORECASTING
This might be the same issue in two different instances, but I leave that to you. |
Hi,
I'm experiencing some unexpected behavior with the Fractionated Morse Auto-Solver.
After it determines the mapping of a letter which is given in the crib to a particular sequence of the (x, -, ・) characters, it later maps a different letter to that sequence. It does not explain in its reasoning why it made this change.
It tells me that two letters are likely in the keyword in an instance where it is clear that they are unlikely to be in the keyword (they are sequential with one letter missing between them, and THAT letter is likely in the keyword).
It says "The mapping of the letters between LetterA and LetterB are now known because the number of unknowns exactly matches the distance between these letters" in an instance where the number of unknowns does not exactly match the distance between those letters.
In the same situation as 3), it has caused a problem with its suggested mapping by suggesting two empty spaces between letters that have only one alphabet letter falling between them (for example, leaving two empty spaces between P and R when there can be at most one).
Feature request: if I provide a crib, it defaults to using the first instance of those letters in the auto-solver, whereas sometimes I specify that I want the crib letters to correspond with a different instance of those letters.
Happy to provide the instance case privately for review, but I can't post it publicly until a later time.
Really grateful for the test generator and all the work that goes into it -- it's invaluable.
