Mastermind

This repository contains the skeleton code for the "Mastermind" project, which comprises:

• Function stubs for all of the functions that need to be implemented as part of the project. The Mastermind program can be run with stack run. In order to complete the project, only src/Game.hs needs to be modified.
• A test suite for the project, which can be run with stack test. The source code for the test suite can be found in test/Spec.hs.
• A benchmark which can be run with stack bench. The source for the benchmarks can be found in bench/Main.hs.

Notes on tests

The test suite comprises a combination of unit tests and property-based tests. Unit tests will always perform exactly the same test and test outcomes for them are deterministic. Property-based tests use randomised inputs and, therefore, test outcomes may be non-deterministic. The names of all property-based tests are pre-fixed with prop_, which will be shown in the test suite's standard output in the case of a failure. If successful, the test runner will report how many inputs were tried. Some tests may be skipped if the tests for functions they depend on do not yet pass.

Notes on benchmarks

Running the benchmarks will output results to the standard output in textual form, as well as in visual form to mastermind.html which can be opened in your choice of web browser.
