GEODOKU
New for February 2006
Finally uploaded all the latest puzzles. Apologies for the delay. My thanks to all contributors. Any more ?
A little contrived perhaps, but the word is a combination of Geography (my favourite word) and Sudoku: the puzzle craze that is sweeping the nation and has even reached my departmental colleagues. The idea is that you have to fill in the grid so that there is only 1 example of any given number, word or symbol in any given row or column. A search on SUDOKU will provide a whole range of sites which give more details if you need to know them.
Thanks to 'Geo Jo' from SLN for getting me started on this by sending 2 puzzles, which you can download from below.
