I just looked that thing up.  This site gives a simple
explanation:
http://www.sudoku.com/

I haven't tried it yet, but it looks pretty easy to me.
I can't wait to try it.  Sometimes I'm pretty good
at this kind of thing - sometimes not.

It would be interesting to see how many possible
solutions there are from a particular starting point.
I suspect that would be a long running program -
perhaps days, months, or weeks.  Maybe a candidate
for parallel processing?
