It's Minlex place in the ED Catalog took 1 minute & 23 seconds to calculate according to my new Python Script:
http://forum.enjoysudoku.com/dynamic-essentialy-different-grid-search-program-t45995.html
- Code: Select all
Index = 286529978
gang-011 (011.sudz) which has 46788396 entries
Now my question is what does a minlex puzzle look like? I will make an assumption in just putting the clues as far as locations as in the original puzzle. What say thou?
(I will play with it HoDoKu and maybe post more ...)

Using HoDoKU I noticed that Setting All Singles solve this, but the solution to the original puzzle had two forcing chains and 3 locked candidates (with the simple way I set-up HoDoKu! Not sure what this says if anything???????
