Post subject: | more on ratings and solvers |
I was looking for a standalone Killer Sudoku solver, to compare it to mine, and came across this one: http://www.sudokuwiki.org/killersudoku.htm (edit: if anyone knows of a standalone solver, please let me know) Unfortunately not standalone, but it did have something useful: 5 example puzzles, rated "Gentle", "Moderate", "Tough", "Diabolical", and "Extreme". I ran all 5 through my solver, which classified them as follows: "Gentle": a bit above Easy "Moderate": Easy "Tough": above Difficult "Diabolical": Medium "Extreme": above Difficult I was impressed by the number of strategies listed that this solver can apparently employ. (and by the way, the site does also have a daily kenken and a kenken solver (!)). I'll ask the site's author about their difficulty rating mechanism.. Patrick |
