Tips for Tackling Medium Sudoku
Conquering a medium Sudoku puzzle is rewarding. Here are some strategies to help you:
- Scan for Singles: Look for rows, columns, or 3x3 boxes that have only one empty cell. The missing number is the solution for that cell.
- Identify Naked Pairs/Triples: If a number can only go in two specific cells within a unit (row, column, or box), and those two cells are the only possibilities for that number in that unit, then that number cannot appear in any other cell in that unit.
- Look for Hidden Singles: Within a row, column, or box, check if a specific digit can only be placed in one location, even if that cell has other possibilities.
- Use Pencil Marks: Jot down potential candidates in empty cells. This helps visualize possibilities and eliminate numbers as you go.
- Don't Be Afraid to Erase: If you make a mistake or get stuck, it's okay to go back and erase your pencil marks or even start over. The goal is learning and enjoyment.
