Great, I guess that makes this script readily available to any Arch (+Arch based distros) user who is looking for a sudoku program in the AUR, correct?
Thanks very much!
I have no experience on this procedure, I have not done this before, I need to read some documentation to understand what it is you are asking, and if I can, I surely will. If you send me any helpful link, I would appreciate it.
I initially tried to incorporate past attempts to generate a sudoku 9x9 matrix, even added a backtracking routine that would detect and exclude duplicate solutions. Unfortunately, the whole process of generating a new puzzle was taking about 30". What is more, the outcome, although symmetrical and all, was not what I wanted. The routines were in c. You can have a look if you like:
Another alternative is to provide the user a few word lists (as you mentioned, they should be quite light), and from then on each one is free to choose their prefered one.
It could be done with curl as well, but then if we did that, we would have another dependency: curl.
I forgot to thank you for the feedback, and for your willlingness to help, it is appreciated.
I must admit I had to look sxmo up...
thx!
