sudoku-master

Final project for ECE 5367 at UH.

Simulation

Simulations are intended to be done with ModelSim.

To get the RAM module to work, you'll need to add two libraries before starting the simulation. This is done under the "Libraries" tab in the "Start Simulation" popup window. Add altera_mf_ver and altera_mf (in that order, specifically).

Also, make sure that a copy of the sudoku4x4.mif file is included in your simulation directory (usually one level above the /work directory).

Git workflow

Typical Git workflow when starting to develop a feature:

1. Checkout master: git checkout master
2. Update/pull latest commits: git pull
3. Create and checkout a new branch for your feature: git checkout -b your-branch-name-here
4. Do whatever development you need to do on this branch.
   1. Commit things in reasonable chunks. How to commit: in project root run git add ., then git status to check if the right things are being committed, then git commit -m "(Your commit message)" to commit.
5. Once you've made a commit (or multiple), push your work.
   1. If it's your first time pushing to this branch, use git push origin -u your-branch-name-here
   2. Otherwise, just git push
6. When your feature/component/whatever is complete, open a pull request (PR) on the GitHub site.
7. If there are merge conflicts, you'll have to resolve them.
   1. If needed, can check this doc for a typical merge process.

Note: life is usually easiest if each branch only has one person pushing commits to it.
