Week 1

Introduction:

Sudoku is a logic-based, combinatorial number placement puzzle. The objective is to fill a 9×9 grid with digits so that each column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 subgrids that compose the bigger grid contain all of the digits from 1 to 9. The puzzle setter provides a partially completed grid, which for a well-posed puzzle has a unique solution.

Objectives:

The objective of my application will be to emulate the above mentioned properties of the game with three levels of increasing difficulty and a professional looking gui. The boards for the levels will not be randomly generated and will be fed into the program beforehand.(However if time remains I might work on a random generation of the board)

My application will run both by mouse and keyboard.

The tentative interface can be said to be:
