I solved your challenge @IceCube
That was a fun one, regardless of its simplicity. The only thing I require for this one is to create a Sudoku solver and parser to submit to my sudoku solver. I only created one in C# a long time ago. I'm attempting this one in C++.
I don't quite understand this though:
Format:
a) "[1-9] [1-9] [1-9]" - coords and input digit
b) "solution [1-9]{81}" - full solution
How does "solution _____" get submitted? (Maybe I should rephrase this)
How is "[1-9]{81}" a full solution for a particular sudoku puzzle? I know solution is the string command, and the argument after it is to be the solution, but I don't get how the solution is to be formatted.
I was looking at Sudoku today, and I can't get what this means: "[1-9]{81}"
"To figure this out, or
to stay confused, that's the question"
edit: Hmmm, {81} an index on the 9x9 grid (the very last square? Being a number indicated by the [?]? (ie. a value from 1-9)?
If that's correct, is that how all squares need to be filled in?
Hmm...
edit: I figured it out for inputting data finally... Shouldn't have taken that long. At first I thought the coordinates meant grid, then position within the grid, then I tried with the brackets around each 3 numbers, which might have been my biggest mistake. ({X} {Y} {Number})
Still don't understand format b however.
