About Classic Sudoku Puzzles
Sudoku is a logic-based, popular number-placement puzzle. The classic Sudoku grid consists of a 9×9 board divided into nine 3×3 sub-grids called "boxes" or "regions." The goal is to fill the grid with digits from 1 to 9 so that each digit appears exactly once in each row, column, and box.
Sudoku puzzles vary in difficulty, ranging from easy to expert, depending on how many digits are pre-filled and the complexity of solving them.
Basic Rules / How to Play
- Grid Size: The puzzle has typically 9x9 grid size made up of three 3x3 sub-grids. The other variation can be of 4x4, 6x6, 10x10, 16x16 etc.
- Rows: Each row must contain all digits from 1 to 9. No digit can be repeated within a single row.
- Columns: Each column must contain all digits from 1 to 9. No digit can be repeated within a single column.
- Box: Each 3×3 box must contain all digits from 1 to 9. No digit can be repeated within any of the nine 3×3 subgrids.
- Pre-Filled Numbers: The numbers given at the start of the puzzle must remain unchanged.
Solving Tips and Techniques:
- Most Pre-filled Numbers: Start with rows, columns, or boxes with the most pre-filled numbers.
- Scanning: Look for empty cells where only one number is possible based on the existing numbers in the row, column, and 3x3 subgrid.
- Elimination: If a number can only go into one cell in a row, column, or box, place it there.
- Single Candidates: A cell that can only have one number is filled right away.
- Candidate Lists: Write all the possible numbers in each empty cell. As you fill in numbers, remove the ones that no longer work.
- Naked Pairs / Triples: If two (or three) cells in a row, column, or box can only have the same two (or three) numbers, remove those numbers from the other cells in that row, column, or box.
- Hidden Pairs / Triples: Find numbers that show up in only two or three cells in a row, column, or box, even if there are other possible numbers too.
- Guess and Backtrack: For very challenging puzzles, guess a number and follow through to see if it leads to a valid solution. If not, backtrack and try another possibility.
- Use pencil and paper: Use pencil marks to keep track of possible numbers in each cell
