Simple Sudoku solver written in Rust. Method is inspired by a method briefly outlined in a CS lecture I had that I decided to try and implement based only on my understanding from the lecture.
It is called Newdoku because I started doing this a while ago and forgot about it and decided to restart, hence "New"
Currently works only in ANSI terminals.
console
$ cargo run
console
OPTIONS:
-f, --file <FILE> Load Sudoku from file
-h, --help Print help information
-q, --quiet No output until finished solving (faster)
-s, --step <STEP> Wait STEP millis between inserts [default: 0]
When loading from a file, the parser parses any digit as a number in the sudoku. Any other character other than a newline will be parsed as an empty square.
Example sudoku:
xxxxxxx9xx9x7xx21xxx4x9xxxxx1xxx8xxx7xx42xxx5xx8xxxx748x1xxxx4xxxxxxxxxxxx9613xxx
