  2. Taking Sudoku Seriously - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taking_Sudoku_Seriously

    After an introductory chapter on Sudoku and its deductive puzzle-solving techniques [1] (also touching on Euler tours and Hamiltonian cycles), [5] the book has eight more chapters and an epilogue. Chapters two and three discuss Latin squares , the thirty-six officers problem , Leonhard Euler 's incorrect conjecture on Graeco-Latin squares , and ...

  3. Sudoku solving algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku_solving_algorithms

    A Sudoku may also be modelled as a constraint satisfaction problem. In his paper Sudoku as a Constraint Problem, [14] Helmut Simonis describes many reasoning algorithms based on constraints which can be applied to model and solve problems. Some constraint solvers include a method to model and solve Sudokus, and a program may require fewer than ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_Sudoku

    A Sudoku whose regions are not (necessarily) square or rectangular is known as a Jigsaw Sudoku. In particular, an N × N square where N is prime can only be tiled with irregular N -ominoes . For small values of N the number of ways to tile the square (excluding symmetries) has been computed (sequence A172477 in the OEIS ). [ 10 ]

    A Sudoku variant with prime N (7×7) and solution. (with Japanese symbols). Overlapping grids. The classic 9×9 Sudoku format can be generalized to an N×N row-column grid partitioned into N regions, where each of the N rows, columns and regions have N cells and each of the N digits occur once in each row, column or region.

  7. Sudoku code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku_code

    The constraints of Sudoku codes are non-linear: all symbols within a constraint (row, line, sub-grid) must be different from any other symbol within this constraint. Hence there is no all-zero codeword in Sudoku codes. Sudoku codes can be represented by probabilistic graphical model in which they take the form of a low-density parity-check code ...

    I have found a wonderful new method to model the sudoku, it modelled sudoku into any arrey of number ( cordinates ) where by using simple rules we could find solution to any sudoke having valid solution, I think this method is not only good from solving sudoku but would added some many new concepts , solution methoid, mathemacticall way to ...

  9. Killer sudoku - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer_Sudoku

    Killer sudoku (also killer su doku, sumdoku, sum doku, sumoku, addoku, or samunamupure) is a puzzle that combines elements of sudoku and kakuro. Despite the name, the simpler killer sudokus can be easier to solve than regular sudokus, depending on the solver's skill at mental arithmetic ; the hardest ones, however, can take hours to solve.
