the auto facility
You will have noticed while playing the game that eventually you get to the stage when no more manoeuvring is necessary and it's just a matter of moving the cards one at a time to the final panel. This is a rather boring activity!
So our last mission will be for our app to recognise this state and then to automatically complete the game.
So the first question is: how can we tell when the game has reached that stage?

Have a go at writing auto_check().
function auto_check() {
var ok=true;
for (var c=1;c<9;c++) {
var ids=g_main_cols[c];
if (ids.length>1) {
var v0=value(ids[0]);
for (var j=1;j<ids.length;j++) {
var v1=value(ids[j]);
if (v1>v0) {
ok=false; break;
} else {
v0=v1;
}
}
if (!ok) break;
}
}
return ok;
}
var ok=true;
for (var c=1;c<9;c++) {
var ids=g_main_cols[c];
if (ids.length>1) {
var v0=value(ids[0]);
for (var j=1;j<ids.length;j++) {
var v1=value(ids[j]);
if (v1>v0) {
ok=false; break;
} else {
v0=v1;
}
}
if (!ok) break;
}
}
return ok;
}
