Solves sudoku puzzles!
Download the source code and compile with g++. Included Makefile. Here I'm using C++17, but you could just as well compile with C++11 (just swap -std=c++17 for -std=c++11).
To enter a (solvable) puzzle, replace the sample puzzle in src/input with the to-be-solved puzzle, using the format as shown (0 in place of empty squares). Compile and run the created executable.
