Algorithms which validate a 9x9 Sudoku Puzzle and solve it. Developed in Python3.

• Convert your Sudoku into an array list as follows:

to:

[["5","3",".",".","7",".",".",".","."] ,["6",".",".","1","9","5",".",".","."] ,[".","9","8",".",".",".",".","6","."] ,["8",".",".",".","6",".",".",".","3"] ,["4",".",".","8",".","3",".",".","1"] ,["7",".",".",".","2",".",".",".","6"] ,[".","6",".",".",".",".","2","8","."] ,[".",".",".","4","1","9",".",".","5"] ,[".",".",".",".","8",".",".","7","9"]]

• Clone this repository using: git clone https://github.com/AdityaPujara23/Sudoku-Solver.git

• Change your directory in the terminal to the downloaded repo

• Copy your converted Sudoku to the following file: sudoku.json

where it states: "sudoku" = [["5","3",".",".","7",".",".",".","."] ,["6",".",".","1","9","5",".",".","."] ,[".","9","8",".",".",".",".","6","."] ,["8",".",".",".","6",".",".",".","3"] ,["4",".",".","8",".","3",".",".","1"] ,["7",".",".",".","2",".",".",".","6"] ,[".","6",".",".",".",".","2","8","."] ,[".",".",".","4","1","9",".",".","5"] ,[".",".",".",".","8",".",".","7","9"]]

change this to: "sudoku" = //your converted sudoku//

where //your converted sudoku// is the sudoku you wish to solve!

• Run the following command in your terminal to validate and solve the sudoku: python3 valandsolve.py
• If your Sudoku is valid, it will present the solution on the screen!
