sudoku_solver

github.com/coreyhaines/sudoku_solver/tree/master

DESCRIPTION:

This is the beginning of a sudoku solver. I couldn’t sleep, so I decided to implement this. It it a first pass at a ‘wishful thinking’ solution, starting at the solver, then moving down to cells.

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

It currently solved puzzles where a single digit is missing. The structure is there, though, to solve the rest.

SYNOPSIS:

When reading it, start at sudoku_solver, then to board, then to section, then to cells, then to cell. Okay, cell goes back to board. This was inspired by watching the videos for ‘Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs.’ I was experimenting to see how a full blown ‘wishful thinking’ approach would turn out.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • FIX (list of requirements)

INSTALL:

hmm… get it from github
