I made another one of these. I think this one might be a bit simpler than the others, but I still haven't figured out how to use the rating tools so it's hard to say for sure.

Code: Select all

 *-----------*
 |..3|...|6..|
 |...|..7|.54|
 |5..|.4.|.98|
 |---+---+---|
 |4..|6..|8..|
 |8.2|...|...|
 |...|8..|9.6|
 |---+---+---|
 |3..|.5.|4..|
 |.7.|1..|..3|
 |...|.2.|...|
 *-----------*


Play/Print this puzzle.

P.S. If anyone could direct me to documentation on how to use SE or other similar tools that would be great.

If anyone could direct me to documentation on how to use SE or other similar tools that would be great.

Sudoku explainer rating is the oldest known rating covering all the field and somehow the reference.

You can find links here

As this program (written in java) is very slow, a "clone" has been created that you can find here

skfr run text files (.txt) with puzzles on a 81 characters lines

the command to rate the file xxx.txt is

skfr -ixxx

Thanks for the info, but it seems that the links in the patterns game thread are dead. I guess I'll have to find it elsewhere.

is indeed gone

but gsf has provided a slightly-modified version,
see SudokuExplainer.jar at gsf.cococlyde.org/download/sudoku/
( provides some extra information for use in the Patterns Game )

To be noted :

The Sudoku Explainer does not make me coffee!

The Sudoku Explainer is freeware, and its author is lazy. Do not expect new features, and even bug fixes, to be implemented.
