Tips for Tackling Medium Sudoku
Conquer these grids with confidence! Here are five essential tips to help you navigate the 9x9 grid effectively:
- Scan and Mark: Regularly scan rows, columns, and 3x3 boxes for missing numbers. Look for cells where a number can only fit in one place.
- Use Pencil Marks (Candidates): Lightly pencil in the possible numbers for each empty cell. This technique is crucial for medium puzzles.
- Eliminate Possibilities: As you place numbers, erase those possibilities from the pencil marks in the corresponding row, column, and box.
- Look for Pairs and Triples: Identify cells within a row, column, or box that can only contain a specific pair or triple of numbers. This significantly reduces guesswork.
- Don't Be Afraid to Guess (Strategically): If you're truly stuck, try placing a candidate number in a cell and see if it leads to a contradiction. If it does, you know that number is incorrect for that cell.
