WEDNESDAY, APRIL 26, 2006 ENTERTAINMENT SUDOKU Sudoku is a number-placing puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers. The object is to place the numbers 1 to 1 in the empty squares so that each row, each column and each 3x3 box contains the same number only once. The difficulty love of the Concepts Sudoku increases from Monday to Sunday.
