A-star AI 8-Puzzle
Here is my source code in java. I need to devise a AI for automatically solving any given state. Any help would be much appreciated. I am lost for this part of my project. The goal state is like this
1 2 3
8 0 4
7 6 5 where 0 is the blank
edit: added source tags -SiCrane
[Edited by - SiCrane on December 14, 2005 8:10:54 AM]
I need to have the COMputer solve the puzzle auto. using A* search. Dont have a clue Please help
A good explanation of A* can be found here
It's about 10 lines of code given the framework you posted above.

It looks like it's an homework... but I might be wrong.
C-Pizzle, if you have any SPECIFIC question, ask it, but we can't/won't do the work for you.

Can I someone tell me an really good algorithm for A* that is simular to this??
Can I someone tell me an really good algorithm for A* that is simular to this??
What do you mean "a really good algorithm for A*"? A* is the algorithm.
This looks very much like a homework problem. The source code posted is documented in a style typically used in teaching (I should know ;) ) and the fact that the OP joined today is a dead-giveaway. C-Pizzle, we don't do peoples homework for them. The members of this forum would be happy to help by answering specific questions that would enable you to understand the A* algorithm better. However, we won't write your code for you. I suggest you follow the link at the top of the page to the Articles & Resources section of this website and read the articles under AI:Pathfinding. If you have trouble understanding any of that material, feel free to post here. Otherwise, please don't try and solicit answers to your homework.

Timkin
