THE ETERNITY II PUZZLE


The puzzle is composed of 256 square pieces, edges have to match. My approach?
Find the correct orientation for each piece. So that all pieces are balanced. I use a
two part approach, one that looks very carefully at how the pieces match up. It
then repeats that in the algorithm. The second part asks: If I have a square made
up of four squares, which square is filled by the puzzle piece. This second part does a Parity
Balance.
In Summary: Which Quadrant does the piece occupy, and which orientation in the Quadrant does it occupy?
