The sudoku widget has hit version 1.0 - So I’m releasing it to the general public for consumption. If you don’t know what Sudoku is yet, boy are you in for some sleepless nights. It’s a ton of fun, but can drive you mad after a while. This widget generates random puzzles with four levels of difficulty, has the option to show you when you entered an incorrect answer, allows for “pencil” marks for temporary numbers, and the best part is it’s free. To download click on the download link to the left or click here. To play, install the widget*, click on one of the numbers at the top to begin entering numbers (or type the relevant key) and click on the empty field. If you make a mistake just click on the same empty field with the same or a different number to remove and/or insert another number. For the “pencil” marks, shift-click on the field. You can remove pencil marks by shift-clicking again with the number you want to remove. If you have any questions or comments, let me know by adding comments below.
