If you were to add up all the numbers in a single Sudoku puzzle what would be their sum?
Kconover
Sudoku does not have any addition. You just have to make sure that each row, column and 'sub square' has each of the nine digits (1-9) only once.

What does 81 S in a S S P mean?
if the question were 81 S in a S P the answer would be 81 Squares in a Sudoku Puzzle so the extra S letter is a mystery unless 81 Squares in a Standard Sudoku Puzzle as there are other variations

Can all sudoku be solved without guessing?
No. The most difficult levels require you to assume that a box is filled with one number or another. You pick one of the numbers, and then, you must follow the puzzle until you either solve it, or come to a impossible situation. Using the logical reasoning of "reductio ad absurdum", you then conclude that the number you picked WASN'T the correct number and start over from that junction point. It is VERY discouraging to have to resort to that technique, so I always play the ones that you can logically solve all the way whenever possible. If there was an easy way to mark a board and erase the wrong entries, then it wouldn't be so bad. Perhaps I could use a dry erase board with a different color when I got to a junction. That way, all I'd have to do is erase all the guesses in that color. There is another situation where you are forced to resort to guessing. Not all of the people who make Sudoku puzzles are aware that you must check your new puzzle for conformity to rules of what exactly makes a Sudoku puzzle. As a result, there are an amazing number of producers of puzzles that simply have no clue that what they are producing are not at all Sudoku puzzles, but something that only looks EXACTLY LIKE a Sudoku puzzle. These supposed "Sudoku puzzles" have not one, but anywhere from 2 to hundreds of solutions. Naturally, it is not possible to solve such a "puzzle" with only logic, as logic will fail to reduce the number of choices down to only 1 solution, a necessary component of actual Sudoku puzzles. You can check online at many websites to determine whether or not the puzzle you are working on is an actual Sudoku puzzle or not. It might just save your sanity! The number of erroneous Sudoku puzzles being published out there is legion! I have a hand held game device made in China that produces almost NO useful Sudoku puzzles. My mother got it for me. Thanks, Mom! Great present! *Note to readers: Beware bargain basement clearance bins. The merchandise is in there for a reason, and sometimes, that reason is because the product in the bin doesn't do anything useful, besides take your money. There is a famous hedge in Japan, where the vegetation was planted to produce a Sudoku puzzle. You would think that people that go to that much trouble (manufacturing and planting) would also check to make sure that they produced a useful puzzle so that their efforts would not turn out to be totally wasted, but you would be mistaken. So, don't assume that just because you are looking at a grid of what appears to be a Sudoku puzzle, that it really is one. I only get my puzzles from trusted authors now, and I haven't run in to a non-working Sudoku puzzle for months... I suggest that you start keeping track of who does a good job for you, and then only go to those places for your puzzles.
What are the disadvantages of playing Sudoku?
Given the benefits of learning and becoming skillful at Sudoku, I would have to say that there ARE no disadvantages of playing it. However, the process of LEARNING to do well at it can be quite time consuming, as is any newly learned skill. If you could come up with any disagreeable aspect of Sudoku, it would be that it takes so much time to be very good at it.
What should be an ideal timing to participate in a Sudoku competition if its a hard or medium difficulty level.?
The Guiness World Record for an easy game of Sudoku is 2 minutes 8.3 seconds. An ideal timing to participate in a Sudoku competition on hard or medium would be higher then that due to difficulty level.

How does the use of a variable instead of a value help to reduce detail and focus?
We try to generalise our code as much as we can. We cannot avoid using values completely, however a value is a literal constant and if we use the same constant over and over it makes sense to use a named constant variable rather than a value, if only to make it much easier to change the value throughout our code. To use a real world example, suppose we are writing a Sudoku solving program. The value 9 crops up quite a lot because there are 9 rows, 9 columns, 9 boxes and 9 digits, one of which is the digit 9. However, Sudoku is not a number puzzle, we just use digits for notational convenience. Any 9 unique symbols would do, so using variables instead of values would give us the ability to change symbols. Moreover, Sudoku puzzles are not just limited to 9 rows, columns and boxes, we can use any number that is a square. 9 is the square of 3 thus a standard Sudoku has order 3. We can also use order 2 (a 4x4 Sudoku), order 4 (a 16x16 Sudoku) and so on. The size of the Sudoku does not change the logic of solving it, so by using a variable to keep track of the order we can cater for any size Sudoku without changing the code. Our code becomes more generalised (less detailed) because it no longer focuses on a standard Sudoku.
What is a digit with 10 numbers?
Technically, that is not possible. A digit is another word for a number and it would be impossible for a single number to contain ten numbers.
Why is the world like a puzzle?
What could it be other than a puzzle? If we can compare it to something else, then the world would be a puzzle and that something else which is absurd cause the world is one and has one containment that is the puzzle. The question would be what is the picture of this puzzle and why are WE ordering it.
If you write 1 to 1000000 how many single digits are there?
You would get 9 single digits. You would get one digit for 1 through 9 and the rest of the numbers would be more than one digit.

Answers for kenken puzzles?
Kenken puzzles are a little like sudoku puzzles in that they have a range of numbers to be used in both the columns (up/down) and the rows (left/right).The size of the kenken determines which numbers you must use. If it is a 4 x4 grid, the numbers are 1,2,3&4. A 6x6 grid: 1,2,3,4,5&6.The numbers need to be placed in such a way that only one of each digit is in each row or column - again, just like sudoku. Such as:1 2 3 42 4 1 33 1 4 24 3 2 1HOWEVER... the kenken has an added MATHMATICAL PUZZLE thrown in as well!Instead of being broken into segments (9x9 sudoku has nine 3x3 segments) the kenken puzzle has different sized & shaped areas with a mathematical answer given for the area.These mathematical puzzles are given in the form of a numerical answer and an operand, usually liited to +, -, x or ÷(the last is division if the character doesn't display properly.) In single cell segments NO OPERAND is used and the answer for that cell is the numerical value given.The mathematical problem in each segment must be solved using the available digits and the mathematical operand.For example, in a 4x4 puzzle a three cell segment might be represented by...7+...thus you would need to use 3 digits that add up (+) to a total of 7.Depending on the shape of the segment, these digits might all be in the same row or column - thus you may only use one of each such as...4 or 4 1 221But if the segment was spaced over both rows and columns (often in an L or box shape), it can reuse digits IF they do not occur in the same row or column, such as...4 1 --or-- 3 12 -------- 3There is more but these basics will allow you to begin to have fun with kenken puzzles.
