The trick of the game "winmine"
Basic trick: "Remove the excluded bricks"

First rank the bricks around a number mark to its value. If the bricks around a number mark "1" include all of the bricks around anohter number mark "1". The bricks out of the intersection can be removed.


Medium trick: "Decrease the bigger number mark"

If some mines around a bigger number mark, the number mark can be decreased according to the number of mines. If the bricks around the bigger number mark can include all of the bricks around another lower number mark, the number mark can also be decreased.


Addvanced trick: "Disassamble the bigger number mark"

First rank the bricks around a number mark to its value. If some bricks were ranked to different values, keep the smallest rank value. Thus the bricks around a bigger number mark will be seperated to several zones. Sum up the smaller rank values and the number of the remained bricks. If the result is equal to the bigger number mark's value, the remained bricks could be marked as mines.

For example, there are four bricks put as a line. Two number mark "1" and "2" are beside the center two bricks. Apply my algorithm, those brick should be ranked as "1112". The three bricks around the number mark "2" are seperated to two zones. One is "11", the other is "2". The summation of the smaller rank values is 1. The number of remained bricks is 1. 1 plus 1 is 2 that is equal to the value of the number mark "2". So the remained brick can be marked as mine and the brick at the other end can be removed.


The above three tricks can be ended by one method: "Rank". If the mines can not be concluded in the bricks after using three tricks, try to guess the distribution of the mines. The higher ranked value means the higher probability of the occurrence, and vice versa.
