Sudoku in Kotlin

Just a simple Sudoku game I made for fun in Kotlin.

This project only contains Kotlin source files and the executable .jar file.

Dependencies

To successfully compile and run the project, you need:

• Kotlin Compiler (kotlinc)
• Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

---

Kotlin Compiler

The Kotlin compiler (kotlinc) is required to compile the .kt source files into a .jar.

Installation:

• Official website: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/command-line.html

Quick install instructions:

Manual download:
Download the latest Kotlin compiler (e.g. kotlin-compiler-2.1.21.zip) from the GitHub Releases.
Unzip it and add the bin directory to your system's PATH to access kotlinc globally.

On UNIX-like systems:
Use SDKMAN! for easy installation and management of Kotlin versions.
Install SDKMAN! with:

curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash
source "$HOME/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"

Verify installation by running:

sdk version

Then install Kotlin:

sdk install kotlin

Verify installation by running:

kotlin -version

Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

The Java Runtime Environment is required to run the compiled .jar file.

Installation:

• Official Oracle JRE/JDK: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/

• OpenJDK (recommended and open-source):

  sudo apt install openjdk-21-jdk     # Debian/Ubuntu
  sudo pacman -S jdk21-openjdk       # Arch Linux

Verify installation by running:

java -version

---

Usage

Compile the Kotlin source files into a .jar:

./compile.sh

Compile and run the project:

./compile.sh -e

Show help:

./compile.sh --help

If no flag is provided, the script will just compile the project.
