Sudoku...

I'm just writing about some interesting information that I found on Sudoku today. I wanted to participate in the National Sudoku championship but then I found out that it just got over :(
Anyway here is the site for it : http://sudokumasters.in/ It did not get any publicity this time because Times of India was not sponsoring it.

There are more than 27 types of sudoku and many more types are being invented. For types of sudoku you can see :

Bhagya was the person who introduced me to Sudoku... before that I thought it was a stupid game of numbers! As I played I started evolving my own strategies to solve it. This http://www.sudoku-world.com/tute_1.html site explains many strategies. I'm sure as a player you would have already figured out those strategies by yourself.

Sudoku in Japanese means "Single number", but this game has a longer history before it got that name.
Play Sudoku... & get your brains working!
