I got interested in constraint programming, and I had NO idea how it worked. It seemed like magic.

I have started on following the slides and code of MiniCP, and have started implementing the first steps in Rust. I find it very challenging but it is a great learning experience. I got such a thrill from solving the N-Queens problem in milliseconds from a program that I had written myself.

I am continuing to develop the implementation for a few hours this weekend. Because writing a constraint system is hard, I am also learning some new parts of Rust that I have not touched before.
