}Goal test: the current assignment is complete.}Path cost: a constant cost (e.g., 1) for every step. Every solution must be a complete assignment and therefore appears at depth n if there are n variables. Furthermore, the search tree extends only to depth n. For these reasons, depth-first search algorithms are popular for CSPs. (See Section 5.2.)
