Sudoku

[sr71blackbird]

I have been wondering about the game Sudoku for a while and been trying to find a simplified way of understanding it. I am horrible at math and have shied away frfom the game because I assumed it would be more than it seems.
I found this video and finally it is gelling in my mind!

It seems that the game is more about logical placement of numbers than anything else, and it's solution is the process of elimination.

This may seem quite obvious to any of you who already know the game and understand it, but as a guy who has a lot of trouble with math (and I know that there are many others like me) this game may have seemed like something to shy away from. But now that I have seen this simple explanation in the way that she tells it, I do not think it nearly as hard as I have been fearful it would be.

I never understood Sudoku until the nice British lady just explained it.
There is something about women with that accent that makes me hang on every word.

Love it . Can't get enough. Even more of a challenge is Killer Sudoku (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer_Sudoku). This actually involves a little math. Same rules as regular Sudoku with additional fields that must add up to a specific number. I've spent hours on one puzzle.
