i know the craze has fizzled out for most who were once hooked on Sudoku and i have only just begun.
i thought the "beginner" level was easy, boy was i wrong!
i gave up on the second puzzle and skipped to the third.
but i realised that i will get nowhere if i continue with my strategy which was not useful.
so i read the tips given in front.
i saw the tips the first instance, but i thought i could do it on my own since there is no rule with this game.
nonetheless, the tips helpped a lot. the one point i have learnt which was most useful is that "there is no need to guess". that means each time you pencil your answer into the cube, it should be a "sure" answer. you can always derive the sure answer by scanning, logic, elimination & deduction. if the answer has not been clear, move to other cubes and come back to it later.
sometimes, the simpliest pointer could be the one that makes the whole difference.
i think this strategy is profound.
sometimes, we attempt too many things at one time, and the more "uncertain" things we put into our lives, the more we are doom for error. it could get so confusing that you have to back-track to undo some actions or change them. you will soon realise that one back-track change must lead to another as the whole picture is interlinked.
on the other hand, if you had put in a "sure" action, meaning, you are firm with your decision and you will live with it, the less back-tracking you have to do.
of course there will be times you may make a wrong decision, give a wrong answer due to wrong assessment and deduced wrongly because of lack of information or lack of check-points,, it is fine. it is just an experience. your life is an experience.
