Re 'The Test'
"Sacha" wrote after "Bob Hobden"wrote: Quite, my wife won't attempt Sudoku, which I love, because it's numbers but I'm certain if I replaced the numbers with letters ie, a to i (it would work just as well) she would not be put off at all. I wonder what it is about numbers that puts people off? In my case, partly bad teaching and partly not natural aptitude. I cannot fathom out what Sudoku is about, let alone do it! But I love doing - or at least, attempting - crosswords. If you can do a crossword you can do Sudoku, it's easier, you don't have to know anything to do it, it's just logic and reasoning that solves them. The numbers 1 to 9 are simply convenient symbols they have no mathematical significance in this context and could easily be nine different animals or nine different letters or nine different cars...... etc. http://www.sudoku.com/ -- Regards Bob H 17mls W. of London.UK |
