How To Do Sudoku | Sudoku Solver Tips

New to Sudoku?

Work through these levels to find out how to ‘get’ the idea.  You don’t have to add or multiply anything – just place the given numbers into the boxes so that they are all used up and there are no double-ups. You’ll be a Sudoku solver in no time!

Suggestion: Draw up your own grid, use pencil and have an eraser handy!

For the first one, use the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 across and down every line.

Just to add some fun to it, make sure each square also has the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4.
