Sudoku

Published October 13, 2005

There was recently a spate of sudoku based posts made in the forums. One of the things that came up was a difficulty creating a solver, but as far as I can tell there are only 186,624 different possible sudoku boards, which given the amount of storage is necessary for a sudoku board in computer memory, would be trivial to iterate through. Maybe I'm missing something. I guess the only way to find out would be write one for myself.

Sounds like a CS problem, someone doing their homework?

Nah, didn't sound like it. In particular some of the people talking about it I know aren't in school anymore. Probably just a fad.

Yeah, sudoku is like all the rage nowadays. I hear about them all the time, and I was surprised to see it in your journal. But creating a solver does sound a little interesting.
