To all those that are capable of providing me with some much needed help or advice.
I have been a set a task of creating a website which contains a well-known and old puzzle that the user can do online, which is as follows:
There is a crate of dimesions 6 by 4
The user is instructed to place 18 bottles into the crate with the following criteria:
each row and column must contain an even number of bottles.
Additional requirement that i have for this project are:
The ability to time how long the user takes to complete the project,
Allow a bottle to be put in, and also removed,
Show on the screen what is happening, such as how many bottles are left,
Show a sample solution at the end if the user hasn't managed to solve the problem, therefore the program needs to check whether the intital requirements have been satisfied
Generate a log, so that it is possible to see all the actions of the user, such as where the bottle was put and at what time, etc.
Unfortunately my programming skills are not very advanced, which is why i am seeking some aid.
Does anyone have any recommendations of a program to do it in? Bearing in mind that intend to incorporate it as part of a website.
Some friends of mine have told me that it is possible to use java swing and or radio buttons, however i'm not sure if this is correct or not. Perhaps forté could be used?
Many thanks in advance for anyone that can help guide me on my way
