%0 Journal Article %T Sudoku as a special transportation problem %A Mansour Moufid %J Computer Science %D 2012 %I arXiv %X Sudoku is a popular combinatorial puzzle. A new method of solving Sudoku is presented, which involves formulating a puzzle as a special type of transportation problem. This model allows one to solve puzzles with more than one solution, keeping the constraints of the problem fixed, and simply changing a cost matrix between solutions. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1210.2584v1
