Hip Sudoku Interface


I have made Sudoku solver and generator in Flash (using Actionscript 2.0). You can check it out or save it on your computer from the link below:

1. Unique solution for each puzzle
2. Symmetrical puzzles
3. Save/Load
4. Show all possibilities
5. Pencil marks
6. Undo and show hints
7. No installation required

Your flash appears to be well done, your sudoku is so simple it is close to worthless.

wapati,

You have a good point. Indeed, I have real trouble making a good generator.

I am curious as to why you have chosen flash as your language?

I have seen many solvers and generators, but none of them is easy to use or have user-friendly interface. I am in process of learning flash. So, I decided to make Sudoku in Flash.

I know that Flash is not suitable for heavily computational problems, like Sudoku. It represents a challenge to make workable acceptable one.

Originally, I wrote the engine in C#.

They all take some learning for (I think) two reasons.

1. There are too many features for most people.
That is, different people want different features and most people don't want ALL the features, just the ones THEY like.

2. Everybody gets the code well past the helpfile stage.

I admire your program, it is easy to use and is nicely visual.
