Based on Sokoban Level Format level can be defined as a string in 2 formats, normal and short. This is one of possible entry formats.

• StringLevel - normal, row separation with pipe or just with new line

#######
#.@ # #
#$* $ #
#   $ #
# ..  #
#  *  #
#######

• ShortStringLevel - created from normal with Run Length Encoding, row separation obligatory with pipe, underscore represents an empty field

7#|#.@_#_#|#$*_$_#|#3_$_#|#_2.2_#|#2_*2_#|7#|

• XmlLevel

XML Sokoban format, game elements are represented with the same characters as in string format. Another entry format.

<Level Id="soko42" Width="7" Height="9">
    <L> ######</L>
    <L> #    #</L>
    <L>## $  #</L>
    <L>#  ##$#</L>
    <L># $.#.#</L>
    <L># $...#</L>
    <L># $####</L>
    <L>#@ #</L>
    <L>####</L>
</Level>

• Level

Intermediary structure to standardize all entry formats. id is a EncodedLevel

level : Level
level =
    { width = 5
    , height = 3
    , map =
        [ [ '#', '#', '#', '#', '#' ]
        , [ '#', '@', '$', '.', '#' ]
        , [ '#', '#', '#', '#', '#' ]
        ]
    , id = "5AHABDFAH5A"
    }

• ViewLevel

Is created always directly from Level and is used to keep and update level elements in Model.

viewLevel : ViewLevel
viewLevel =
    { player = Block 1 1
    , walls = [ Block 0 0, Block 1 0, etc. ]
    , boxes = [ Block 2 1 ]
    , dots = [ Block 3 1 ]
    , gameSize = ( 5, 3 )
    }

• EncodedLevel

This is ShortStringLevel format mapped to more url-friendly symbols, see table below.
