sudoko

its a number puzzle. the idea is to arrange the numbers 1 thru 9 alond each row, horizontal and vertical, AND in each 3X3 square.
i dicided to copy one for the maths class at jacobs school. i couldn't print directly from the site, but i could capture the image on screenhunter. i showed hubby the puzzle and explained it and he said 'why is there a little hand on it giving you the finger?' the hand is the curser from screenhunter so i dont know that i can avoid capturing it but i certainly cant give it to jacobs class.

 

Argh! Everyone is doing these things. On the tube, if someone has a paper in front of them chances are they'll be doing a sudoku.

Personally I don't see what's so great, but I'm crap with numbers so there you go...

 

And just like magic .... the cursor dissapeared

 

They are dead easy to do. Even got a web based Sudoku solver.

 

thank-you goldie. now i want one where the size of the curser is blown up.

 

I love them!!!! Great for passing time!!

Find a words are tooooooo simple...and I'm tooooo stupid do a majority of crossword puzzles!!!! So finally something in the middle!!

Ya know Laurie...I believe you can get a Sodoku widget for the desktop!!

The square, you mean? I can do that.... in fact, I could just make it again

How's this?

 

no goldie, the lttle hand giving the finger. lol. i worked out what is wrong. on a normal curser pointy hand..it has a thumb.

 

well that didnt work. no little hand, finger or otherwise !!

 

Laurie the "pointy hand" is the "link select" icon. If you go Start/Control Panel and look at your mouse control panel applet then you should see a list of mouse pointer icons

 

Actually that cursor in the picture you first posted was the Flash cursor - you can't change that. And it's pointing with it's index finger. There is a thumb. If you had 6 fingers then maybe it might be giving you "the finger"....

 

found this in our local paper online, this morning......did half of it and saved it for later.......wobbles

 

i do realise that goldie, but i thought it was amusing never-the-less.

 

same here

 

well thats done!!~ i find them all too easy now to hold my attention. any other mental gymnastics that you can suggest ?much aloha to you all.

 

Give this one a whirl and see how long it takes you!?!?!

There's plenty more where this came from!!!! I'll give you the URL if you want??

printed iit before i looked. this is different. is it just the same but with the addition of AB & C??

 

got all the way to the end and discovered i got it wrong! thanks for the brainteaser. living in paridise is all very well, but its hardly rocket surgury. lol.

 

did it. took about three hours though.!!

 

I've tried to stay away from this thread but somehow given in!

My mum's hooked to this, she can do the Samurai's and the Killers that The Times produce every day, it's really sad!

 

i find most brain teasers too easy to bother with, so its nice to have puzzles that take some working out. that said, once you have done a couple and got into the logic of the thing, this too becomes not so much an exercise in intelligence, but more an exercise in procedure. when i was in england i used to do those logic puzzles, but found the same thing applied. they don't sell them here so this has been a welcome little number gymnasium.

 

Here is a link to all kinds of free printable sodoku puzzles....
