Planemaple.pl is a perl script for producing an antisymmetric matrix whose determinant is the square of the number of (weighted) tilings of a specified planar graph.
Derivation of the Kasteley Matrix
This is based largely on
David Wilson's
article (postscript) on the generation of random structures, which derives
the Kasteleyn matrix and the algorithm on pages 2-3.
The program is executed by the Perl interpreter. It requires version 5 of perl, which is not the default version on Athena. For the script to be executed directly, the first line should begin #!
