Lesson #3: You've used scanning and counting, and now you are stuck, what method should you use next? Try intersecting lines and you will find many more numbers you can place. This will work to solve almost any easy level puzzle, and will get you further along with medium to hard puzzles.
The next lesson, Lesson #4 is on Pencil Marking and strategies to use when penciling in "candidates". Please subscribe to follow along with this series of Sudoku lessons, and thanks for watching!

Your explanation is very easy to understand. I followed your methods and was able to pass 1 level now and in the process of learning more advanced techniques to solve harder puzzles. Thank you. I have a request: Can you put lesson # on the title of each video so we can follow it easier ? Thanks.

There is something very peculiar about the captions for this lesson. In 3 different browsers (Firefox, Chrome and Edge) all the captions appear at once at the start of the video. Its like the timings of all the spoken pieces of dialog were set to time zero. Is anyone else seeing the captions displayed like this? So far, captions on the other videos in the series have all been normal. This one stood out. After clicking on the "..." just below the video, I invoked "Show Transcript". This displayed a transcript with only ONE entry at time 0:00 which contains ALL the captions on a single very long line. If you that as well, then that is the caption problem.

I'm confused. I was following your earlier series that went through episode 5 with strategies for solving easy level Sudoku puzzles. Now I see lesson 1 on scanning method, lesson 2 on scanning and counting, and lesson 3 on intersecting lines - when I was really expecting an episode 6 on strategies for solving medium level puzzles and then on to hard puzzles. Could you sort this out for me, please? Is the series of 5 episodes complete and is this a completely different set of strategies? Does "lesson 1" follow on episode 5? Thank you.

Thanks for the question, the easy episodes I uploaded 3 years ago. I decided to create lessons this summer to systematically go through the strategies, starting with lesson 1, for beginners and working my way through medium to difficult. This is a new series of lessons in 2021, the others are from 2018. Hope that answers your question!

I loved the series you created 3 years ago. I hope you keep them up on your channel. They were so clear and really gave me a great start. I'm looking forward to your new series. I kind of backed into it because I started with lesson 3 🙄.

@@Tee-Catin I plan to create a separate playlist for this series of lessons once there are enough videos, that will make it easier for viewers to follow. There are so many strategies I'd like to go through, but I couldn't just jump in with hidden triplets and x-wings without starting with the basics first and building from there. Unfortunately the editing is very time consuming, but hopefully it adds value so its worth it. Thanks for your feedback!

Mam Do you also make videos on Chess?

@LearnSomethingNewEveryDay 2 жыл бұрын

Hello Subhadeep, I've loved playing chess since I was a little kid, even before I knew about Sudoku! Right now I'm concentrating on Sudoku videos, but in the future I would like to do a series on chess, I just need more time. Thanks for asking!

@pascal1947 9 ай бұрын

I would be interested in a chess series. I learned chess long, long ago and I always sucked at it badly. I would love to learn enough strategy to play a decent game.

Lesson 3 does not have captioning. Despite captioning being available.

@pascal1947 9 ай бұрын

The captions are there. They just all display at once at the start and then disappear. I found the solution, of sorts. I changed the KZfaq video settings (the "gear" icon), Subtitles CC(2) from English(United States) to English(auto-generated). It fixes the problem of all captions appearing at video start, all at once. I don't know why this fixes the problem or why the problem occurs for some videos but not all. I suspect it is bug.
