A sudoku puzzle consists of a 9 by 9 grid. This grid is subdivided into nine 3 x 3 boxes.
Some of the cells in the grid are prefilled with a number between 1 and 9, while many
other cells are blank. Your job is to determine the correct number to be entered in each
of the empty cells.
To figure out which number between 1 and 9 belongs in a particular cell, you need to
adhere to the following rules:
• The numbers 1 through 9 must appear exactly once in each row.
• The numbers 1 through 9 must appear exactly once in each column.
• The numbers 1 through 9 must appear exactly once in each 3x3 box.

Did you know that the letter “A” doesn’t appear
in a written number until you reach One
Thousand? Well, that’s if you don’t count the
“and” in numbers like “four hundred and
twenty” for example. Also, the letter “M”
doesn’t appear until you reach “one million”!
