Sudoku Solver
Well here's my challenge:
Make a sudoku solver.To be honest, I don't know were to begin. I just need a general idea of the most efficient way to have my program solve it. So should I make it search the first row.. then diagonal or whatever.
I just need a few tips/ideas thanks
And no, this is not homework.

Re: Sudoku Solver
Sudoku's are simple enough puzzles that they can be solved via brute-force with computers.
Re: Sudoku Solver
Brute force you say?Originally Posted by helloworld922
Alright I'll look into that.
And I'll look at the sudoku solver by logic.
Any more ideas/hints?
Re: Sudoku Solver
You could try a stochastic approach
*note: You'll either have a very slow running algorithm (might take days or weeks to find the solution), or soon become the richest person in the world.

Well I've found several websites demonstrating how the approach to brute force a solution should look like, so I'm testing it right now on a 3*3 mini sudoku.
