Clone this repository (stay on the master branch). There are two files that should be run: SimpleSolution.java and BestSolution.java.
Before doing so, you must change the absolute path of the input text file (which we have named testCase.txt), wherever you have chosen to clone this repository.
In each of the aforementioned executable files, we read in the input text file by passing in the absolute path as a string to a helper function called "readFileInList". The line of code that needs to be modified is:
List<String> input = readFileInList("/Users/bryantruong/git/comp560a1/src/simple/testCase.txt");
After running each file, the result should be visible via stdout in the console, with the solved KenKen puzzle printed, followed by a blank line, then followed with the iteration count.

Lastly, due to an unforeseen circumstance of a group member dropping last-minute, we have written a short addendum to explain the status and intended implementation of our Local Search, had the team member issue not arisen: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RCwVEOjGgkt1N4xaL1IwTGRpUYugtPJyhiD7PC49WHs/edit?usp=sharing
