Pavement tile layout generator

What is it?

This program generates tile layouts for Classico tiles. Classico tiles (also known as Old Town) is a set of tiles of 3 sizes: small, medium and large. The width ratio is 1:2:3 and the height is 2 for all tiles. The tiles look like this:

The number of tiles on a pallet can be different among manufacturers. Here's an example of one layer of tiles on a pallet:

Also, the pavement can consist of tiles of different color so we need to mix them in a proper ratio.

The task is to layout tiles within a given pavement width so that the remainder of tiles is minimum.

Installation

git clone git@github.com:bhmj/classico_layout.git

Configuration & run

make build

./build/classico_layout --pallet.large=16 --pallet.medium=16 --pallet.small=4

Example of layout generated
