Easy Sudoku
What makes a Sudoku easy?
With around 38 clues, many empty squares have only one possible number once you check their row, column and box. You rarely need to write small pencil marks or look several steps ahead.
Easy puzzles are good for learning the scanning technique: choose a number, such as 5, and look across each box to find the one square where it must go.
Easy Sudoku
A simple routine
Start with the number that appears most often in the grid, since it will have the fewest places left. Work through 1 to 9 this way, then look for rows or boxes with only one or two squares left.
