Good afternoon all,
For some time now, my wife has been in need of a Sudoku checker. Or to
be more exact, I was in need of a Sudoku checker into which I could feed
her solutions from a text file that contains a string of 81 numeric
digits.
Yes, you have guessed it. The checker was straight forward and the
temptation to try a solver was overwhelming. I now have one, but must
confess I have not yet dared to try it on a puzzle of difficulty level
"Diabolical".
It is at least twenty years since I was paid to write a line of Ada code
so I hope you will indulge an old man who is delighted to find that he
is not quite as senile as he had feared. Now he is in need of an
audience that he hopes might be sympathetic to a bit of boasting ;-)
