lmfaooooooo

looooooooooooooooooooool

You win lol.

i laughed so hard at this i screen shot it for friends

It took me 3:32 to solve it. Oops.. Sorry...

would have easily taken me over 50 min, I just started Sudoku learning yesterday.

@@jackeyniraula You'll get a hang of it. It's mostly logic and finding patterns. Practice on a lot of easy Sudokus at first. This will train your brain to find the missing numbers in a row, column and block without counting. Then go slowly to the harder ones. Watch Simon's tutorials. He explains the logic behind every technique in an easy to understand way.

@@Blubb5000 So true.

Same. But a book with over 1000 sudokus 3 years ago. Opened it once. Since a couple of months a day I do sudokus every day, cause lockdown is boring

Same

Sad this coment is 1 year old

If only if that was true 😂

1 year old comment about corona?!?!?!? damn

Lmao

lol😂😂😂

U explained it better than the guy in the video♥️

The guy actually explain it clearly tho

@@mentul2766 I never asked for Ur opinion

@@umershaikh8012 now I didn't ask for yours mate, so care to mind your own business?

nichol dsouza I also didn’t ask for ur opinion again... see where this is going? This is what happens when you say you didn’t ask for someone’s opinion when they never asked for urs

ummm, not always. I love to time myself. it adds a bit of a challenge and keeps me on track. I get distracted easily so timing makes it extra fun. But yeah, finishing is important but not the only importance to sum (pun... lol)

how exacly did he decide there can only be 2 in that place? cuz from what i can see in that line there are 3 more posibbilities of 2 being somewhere else

@@allmightsmaaash1082 n my question is,how do i know whether this puzzle is a story of 2 placed at (8,2).

@@allmightsmaaash1082 It's not a case of "The 2 in the box can only go in this cell". It's the other way around - "I can't put 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 in this cell, so the only thing left for it to be is a 2".

SAME😭😭😭

Aha! Nice one, Swami!

Also my first find

How

What a nasty comment! I've been trying to find a way to deduct that naked 5 in R8C7. It's in R7C6. Damn you!

@@Maelstrom000 that could be 1 or 4 too, r8c7 can only be 5

That’s one I spotted as soon as he did the 2. It leapt out at me as being an obvious one.

In my month or so of following this channel and playing some of the games, I've realized that Snyder notation is very good for most traditional sudoku games, but it also tends to make some of the more complex puzzles and techniques harder. The main problem with it is that logic techniques that rely on elimination and spotting broader patterns don't stand out as much. In particular, patterns like x-wings/fish are hard to locate, as they rely on noticing exactly which, where, and how many candidates exist in certain columns and rows. I guess in the end you need to learn how to balance the use of Snyder and traditional cell-based notation, and when to switch between them.

I would have completely missed that if not for this comment. Thanks.

7 to 20 min

i solved it in 6 minutes and 1 hour

@@mrleon5607 🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Because of the 4. Even though he entered the 3 before the 4. Without knowing the position of the 4 you can't fill in the 3

On paper, after I've found the pairs in squares (snyder notation marks) I "think outside the box", i.e., I make a note of which digits are left to go into the most crowded sets. So on row 2 my note was "12689" for example. Then it's fairly quick to check each of the cells in that row. (I also note cells which only can have two digits, so r2c3 got a "2/8" note which was very quickly resolved when I found the 2 farther over.) I'm not super fast, but I get there.

I also have trouble seeing them, but, for now, the best I can come up with is to scan for the most restricted rows or columns, then see if they intersect in a 3x3 box. Or, find the most restricted 3x3 box, then look for the most restricted rows or columns feeding into that box, scanning to find the rows/columns/3x3 boxes with the least numerical overlap. Or, if I have thoroughly notated using Snyder notation, I look for cells with either no or a single Snyder little number, and test them for naked singles. If using a pencil, I mark unused numbers "outside the puzzle" adjacent to the candidate rows / columns / 3x3 boxes (demarking the 3x3 candidates with a squiggle line next to it, using a double squiggle to demark the numbers for the central 3x3 box (Box 5). Hope this wasn't too simple minded an answer.

Which tip?

@@shubhamdalal5960 I think like how you know that a particular row or column won’t have a certain number because of the pencil marks even if you have not marked that number specifically yet.

I don't see how that is?

Now that you've seen it maybe you can spot them in the future. I didn't get the naked single on my own. It definitely helped. It at least reminds us to be aware of this and keep an eye out.

@@anonamatron I found a nice webstie that shows the naked concept to me in an interactive way. So i now understand it.

@@zuzoscorner I found a website about naked concepts too, but my parents asked me not to look at that type of thing anymore...

Zuzo's corner could u provide a link/if link get blocked by youtube just the search words please

@@zuzoscorner please inform the name of that website. Thank you. Elangovan.M.

Lau Bjerno you ought to send it to them!

Nah, too much trouble.

i want that sudoku if you can send it please

I want it too! Please?

I guess in these earlier videos, they didn't use that software. I wish they'd go back and re-create the link like they have now. I had to resort to using Snip-It to get a screen capture, and printed it out, to complete by pen/pencil. Old-school, lol

The traditional full notation system is inefficient for speed solvers. The numbers clutter up the board, often hiding as much as they reveal, and valuable time is wasted unnecessarily filling in and removing marks. They prefer to use a more streamlined method called Snyder notation, that (for the most part) only adds candidates when there are exactly two possibilities left in a box. They have designed their platform to work the way they do. There are plenty of other programs out there that will automate that kind of thing if you want to go the regular route.

There is no other digit that cell can be. [4 and 8] are in the same box, [3, 5 and 7] are in the same row, [6 and 9] are in the same column. That cell can only be a [1 or 2]. And as he determined the [1] in that box will be in column 7, that cell can only be a [2].

Look at r2c8. Which numbers are already covered? There are only 2 options left because 3-9 is either already filled for that particular spot.

row -> 3 4 5 7 8 column -> 6 9 Square -> 1 8 4 Only left one number.

Vyc 21 yes! Thx. I finally got that.

Did you ever figure it out ,why a #2 went in row2 column 8.......after he put the naked one's in column 7 that's the only other# that would go there.

R Stanhope wtf stil don’t get it

@@Sefasym It's pretty simple. Just count all the other #'s in that row, column & Box...13456789....the only other one left is the 2 for that square...go back and listen again to his explanation

They choose # 2 in that box becoz ,that middle box is influenced by 8 numbers if u choose any other box in that square it will definetly influenced by less number ..

how exacly did he decide there can only be 2 in that place? cuz from what i can see in that line there are 3 more posibbilities of 2 being somewhere else

@@allmightsmaaash1082 The cell where he puts the 2 - he deduced that no other number can go there, instead of a 2 not being able to go anywhere else. Basically, every other number is already existing in either the same row, column, or block, but the 2.

@@allmightsmaaash1082 , row -> 3 4 5 7 8 column -> 6 9 Square -> 1 8 4 Only left one number.

@Maggie Li thank you so much. It was very kind of you to explain in such detail.

9*9 box is never empty unless you're the one creating that sudoku.

Fuck you you are not muslim you are hindi that believe some thing that is not realy true fuck you

It could go in those places, but as he mentions when looking at the middle square then: 1. from the row 5, 7, 3, and 4 are present and ruled out, leaving 1, 2, 6, 8, and 9; 2. from the column, 6 and 9 are present and ruled out, leaving 1, 2, and 8; 3. from the 3x3, 8 is present and ruled out, leaving 1 and 2; 4. from placing the 1 in the only places it can go rule that out, leaving just the 2. Therefore, as there is only a 2 possible that can go in that square, it is what's called a "Naked Single" and so that square must be the 2. If the 2 was placed above the 8, it could not go in the middle square, but neither could any other number.

@@msclrhd Okay I see it now. I started to do that in my sudoku games. Eliminating possibilities from a certain square because of the row columns and the box.
