Class QdimacsParser

java.lang.Object

public class QdimacsParser extends DimacsParser
This class implements a parser for the QDIMACS input format. It is an extension of the DIMACS format used in sat solver competitions. See http://www.qbflib.org/qdimacs.html for more information.

The BNF for a QDIMACS input file is given by (starting symbol is QDIMACS-FILE):

QDIMACS-FILE ::== PREAMBLE PREFIX MATRIX
PREAMBLE ::== "p" "cnf" PNUM PNUM "\n"
PREFIX ::== [QUANT_SETS]
QUANT_SETS ::== QUANT_SET QUANT_SETS | QUANT_SET
QUANT_SET ::== QUANTIFIER ATOM_SET "0\n"
QUANTIFIER ::== "e" | "a"
ATOM_SET ::== PNUM ATOM_SET | PNUM
MATRIX ::== CLAUSE_LIST
CLAUSE_LIST ::== CLAUSE CLAUSE_LIST | CLAUSE
CLAUSE ::== LITERAL CLAUSE | LITERAL "0\n"

Lines starting with "c" and consisting of non-special-ASCII characters (comments) are ignored.
LITERAL is a signed integer != 0.
PNUM is a signed integer > 0.
The two numbers in PREAMBLE specify the number of variables and the number of clauses.

To parse QDIMACS output files, use parseQDimacsOutput(String)
