'''Sūdoku''' (数独 "single numbers") is a mathematical, logic-based [[puzzle]], where the aim is to complete a 9x9 grid, so that each row, column and 3x3 grid contains only one recurrence of the digits from one to nine.
    
The game has its roots in the games of "Latin Squares", invented by the [[Swiss]] mathematician, Leonhard Euler, in the 1780's. He developed the idea of arranging numbers in such a way that any number or symbol would occur only once in each row or column.
