 Share

Recommended Posts

This solver can solve any sudoku as long as it is possible. Input the numbers and then click solve. It uses 2 simple solving methods and then a brute force method. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

V2: Can now recognize pairs. For a descritption of pairs

Is faster than the first version for most puzzles.

V2.1: now has naked pairs for cells as well

Now has a updated Gui and a clear button Thx to Piano_man for the gui

I haven't looked at how you do it , but I'm impressed how quickly it found a solution to the one attempt I've made so far. It would be interesting to see what Shevilie makes of it wouldn't it?

Well done, I didn't feel too confident you would succeed when you started but I'm glad to see I was wrong.

Looks and works good. Thanks a bunch

1 little comment (suggestion).

Change Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE to Case -3 and remove the #include <GuiConstants.au3>

Unless I missed something (it happens) that seems to be the only place where you used a constant from The GUIConstants file so you have #included a lot of extra constants (and lines) in your script when they are not needed.

I like this!!! I tried it on the hardest one in my big "Sudoku" book and it worked after about 40 seconds. I have a few suggestions:

  • Have a clear button to clear all input boxes
  • Have it disable the inputs so that the user can't interfere with your program
  • Make the GUI a little more user friendly, for example, add some sort of line to let it be easily seen where the 3x3 boxes start/end
I looked at your code and noticed you don't use and indentation (at least that's how I got it...). See if this helps you see the logic of your loops more clearly:

Global $constant[10][10];user numbers [row-1][column]
Global $input[10][10];input boxes [row-1][column]
Global $1
Global $2
Global $3
Global $r
Global $c
Global $possibilities[10][10][10];[row][column][number] 1 = applicable 0 or "" = not
Global $change;change in tests
HotKeySet("{esc}", "_exit")

Last of all, anybody know how to tell Scite to update? I had to download the new version of autoit for this but Scite still isn't recognizing "StringCompare", however when I click "Start -> Programs -> AutoIt -> RunScript" it works fine...

This is what I meant by changing the GUI, feel free to change this to whatever... I also made the font bigger and set the text to center. I know there is something to make it so that the input can only receive numbers but I can't find it (in my very brief search).

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

Dim $input[9][10]

$Form1_1 = GUICreate("solver", 610, 374, 189, 173)
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Solve", 260, 338, 75, 25, 0)

$XaddAmmount = 0
$YaddAmmount = 0

GuiSetFont(11)
For $i = 0 To 8
    If $i = 3 or $i = 6 or $i = 9 then 
            $YaddAmmount += 15 
        EndIf 
    
    For $j = 1 To 9
        $x = 56 * $j - 60
        $y = 32 * ($i + 1) - 10
        
        If Mod($j - 1, 3) = 0 then 
            $XaddAmmount += 30 
        EndIf
        
        $input[$i][$j] = GUICtrlCreateInput("", $x + $XaddAmmount, $y + $YaddAmmount, 36, 23, $ES_CENTER)
    Next

Thx for the gui ill add that. My script is indented in scite the indents must have been lost when i copied it.

Your welcome... and I thought that might be the problem because that has happened to me sometimes.

When you dl the latest version of autoit which one do you pick from the dl page?

From here I picked the first one in the list for the AutoIt3 (not beta), then for beta I picked the third one.

However I think the problem is more with scite, because the helpfile shows the StringCompare() and when I doubleclick on the .au3 icon it works fine but when I open scite and try to run it doesn't work (because it can't find the function StringCompare)...

EDIT: This works now, and I don't know what I did to fix it... Anyways thanks for the help!

updated gui and clear button.

Looks better now and seems fast.

Maybe you could check that the numbers entered are legal. If you put the same number more than once in a row or column it shouldn't try to solve it.

I don't quite understand what your saying. Are you talking about the brute test?

Thx geosoft the does work.

Now Version 2: has pair logic

YW but I see you still have it #included and I hate that file with a vengence.

When you use it you are actually #including 17 files with a total of 643 constants. No matter I just run it through my constants replacer script.

The latest version works well though.

I mean someone can enter numbers which are illegal. I tried putting two 4s in one column, and two 4s in one row. Your script then will try forever to solve it.

I have added a couple of new solving strategies but i ahve not been able to get them to work so i think im done with the solver. If anyone would want to continue working on it i can give you the newest code. The new code contains naked triples and locked candidates but neither of them work.
