I’m trying to make 9 3×3 text fields each with a line separating them (a sudoku puzzle). The easiest way I have though of to do this is to make the lines in the background and put up 9 different panels in the GUI. I’m currently using a grid layout but that can change. Any Ideas?
Thank you in advance
I’m looking for a new ds game and I can’t decide on what would be a really good game! Here are some of my favorite ds games:
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon-I basically fell in love with the mystery dungeon games! I never played a pokemon game before, except for these type, so I’ve only experienced this spinoff of Pokemon. However, I thought it was pretty darn awesome.
Super Mario Bros.-I bought this since I saw all the good reviews and I did enjoy it a lot, although it was kind of easy to beat. I did play it 3 times through though so I’d get my money’s worth!
Animal Crossing-This was one of my very first games and I enjoyed it a lot. Now, a couple years later its grown old to me since you do the same thing everyday basically and I cant do multiplayer with anyone. However, it did entertain me for a long while.
Lego Star Wars- This was the last game I got, and I did find it pretty good. I wouldn’t say it was the best ever, but it was okay.
Rune Factory 2-This game entertained me for a long long time. I found it refreshing and different from most games I bought before.
Brain Age 2-I basically did everything in this game, and found it slightly old except for the Sudoku which was pretty awesome in this game
And I’m just going to say I do have a version of NintendoDogs, so no one will recommend it. It WAS cute and pretty fun, but I got bored eventually.
Alright, sorry for listing all that if you didnt actually wanted to know a description for the games on why I liked it and blah blah =). The games I thought about getting are maybe a Sims game (My Sims Kingdom or Sims 2: Castaways?), Bowsers Inside Story, Zelda: Spirit Tracks or Phantom Hourglass, or MAYBE trying a pokemon game since I loved mystery dungeon. But I thought I’d ask, so if you have any insight on those games or something different to recommend please do! I **** spending 20-30 dollars on a game that turns out to be crappy. Thanks for your help!
Could you guys say why do? I’m so indescivive haha
I am programming a sudoku game. It isn’t anything fancy, but I want to allow the player to select the difficulty level for the puzzles it generates. The question is, what makes one puzzle harder than another? I can think of a couple things to affect difficulty, but I want insight and other possibilities that I missed.
I see two things: First, the number of blank squares vs pre-answered numbered squares. A puzzles that only has a couple blank squares will be easy.
Second, I suspect the number of unique digits used in pre-answers squares at the start would affect difficulty. For example, if a puzzle starts with 25 squares filled in, but only has 5′s, 6′s, 7′s, 8′s, and 9′s in those squares, then the blanks squares will be may be more difficult to find because you do not have any obvious way to rule out the possibility of a square being a 1, 2, 3, or 4. Conversely, if a puzzle started with 25 squares filled in, but made sure to give at least one of each digit (1-9) in the puzzle, then the player could always rule out some of each number for various squares and that would make things a little easier. I hope my description make sense.
Do any other Sudoku players have ideas on what makes a puzzle easy or hard? If you have an answer, please be specific…. it is hard to program specific game rules from vague information.
Thanks.

I am 17, & the type of person who likes to accomplish as much as I can, in all area’s I can manage!
I do sudoku’s, and crosswords, but I also like doing word searches … because they are easy, and fast, and I think it would be pretty cool if I had a hundread books finished.
BUT, I am mature, and I don’t want to appear any diffrent …
Do you think that might be stupid, or seem imature? Because they are SO easy, and many kids do them?
Also, do you off hand know of any benefit one might get from doing them?
Thanks for all the suggestions, advice, and input.
