Solving Sudoku With dpkg

Reader Otter points out in his journal a very neat use for the logic contained in Debian's package dependency resolver: solving sudoku puzzles. To me at least, this is much more interesting than the sudoku puzzles themselves. Update: 08/24 02:51 GMT by T : Hackaday just ran a story that might tickle the same parts of your brain on a game played entirely with MySQL database queries.

Re:Cheat code for even Sudoku??

Jesus Christ. If you're going to be a game-code-nazi, get it right:

The [start] isn't part of the code, nor is the [select]. After the last [a] the code is entered, the code input is done. You can hit [select] multiple times after the code trying to decide between single player and co-op and it will still work.
