Sudoku

I posted a few months ago about how Sudoku had hit the UK – the wave has now reached the US.

United have a set of puzzles in their in-flight magazine; I see them in newspapers; they have been on CNN – everywhere.

Bored on a flight I tried them – and they are certainly interesting. The harder puzzles really appeal to my sense of problem solving and pattern matching.

So – somewhat addicted – I purchased some cool software – Soduko from SadMan Software.

Great – I’ve now got an endless supply of really hard problems – along with built in tutorial advice. It’s interesting – since reading up on some of the pattern matching concepts I’ve halved my time to complete some of the harder problems.
