The Karnaugh Map (KMap) Solver is a C++ application that provides a graphical interface for solving Karnaugh Maps. It allows users to interactively input values into a KMap grid and calculate the corresponding minterms. The project is currently under development and aims to include the simplification of Boolean expressions in the future.

Installation

1. Install Dependencies:

   Ensure you have installed all necessary dependencies for your platform. For detailed instructions, refer to the Raylib documentation.

2. Update System Environment Variables:

   Add the following path to your system environment variables:

   C:\raylib\w64devkit\bin
   

3. Navigate to Source Directory:

   Open a terminal and navigate to the following path:

   C:\raylib\raylib\src
   

4. Compile Raylib:

   In the terminal, run the following command:

   mingw32-make PLATFORM=PLATFORM_DESKTOP
   

5. Locate Compiled Library:

   After the command executes successfully, a new file named libraylib.a will be created.

6. Replace Existing Library:

   Copy the newly created libraylib.a file and replace the existing libraylib.a file in the lib folder within your project directory.

7. Create Makefile:

   Create a Makefile in your project directory and add the following content:

   # Define the source files for the project
   SOURCES = ./src/fourvar.cpp ./src/grid.cpp ./src/kmapsolver.cpp ./src/main.cpp ./src/threevar.cpp ./src/twovar.cpp
   
   # Default target to compile the project
   default:
    # Compile the source files into an executable named game.exe
    g++ $(SOURCES) -o ./build/game.exe -g -O1 -Wall -Wno-missing-braces -I include/ -L lib/ -lraylib -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm
    
    # Run the compiled executable
    ./build/game.exe
   
   

8. Run the Program:

   To compile and run the program, execute the following command in the terminal:

   make
   

Usage

Click on the cells in the KMap grid to toggle between 0 and 1. After setting up your KMap, click on the "Calculate" button to calculate the minterms.
