Summary

This project involves developing a Python-based program that solves matchstick equation puzzles using algorithmic search techniques. The program models numbers as seven-segment representations and applies a depth-first search (DFS) strategy combined with pruning methods to efficiently explore possible transformations. It evaluates valid moves by transferring matchsticks between digits and operators while respecting a maximum move constraint. The solver outputs all valid solutions in structured JSON format, including performance metrics such as visited and pruned nodes.
