36 Valid Sudoku

Determine if a 9x9 Sudoku board is valid. Only the filled cells need to be validated according to the following rules:

Each row must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition. Each column must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition. Each of the 9 3x3 sub-boxes of the grid must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.

尋找 box index = (row / 3) * 3 + col / 3

def isValidSudoku(self, board: List[List[str]]) -> bool:
    row = [set() for _ in range(9)]
    col = [set() for _ in range(9)]
    box = [set() for _ in range(9)]
    
    for i in range(9):
        for j in range(9):
            if board[i][j] != '.':
                num = int(board[i][j])
                box_idx = (i//3) * 3 + j//3

                if num in row[i] or num in col[j] or num in box[box_idx]:
                    return False

                row[i].add(num)
                col[j].add(num)
                box[box_idx].add(num)
            
    return True

37 Sudoku Solver

Write a program to solve a Sudoku puzzle by filling the empty cells.

A sudoku solution must satisfy all of the following rules:

Each of the digits 1-9 must occur exactly once in each row. Each of the digits 1-9 must occur exactly once in each column. Each of the the digits 1-9 must occur exactly once in each of the 9 3x3 sub-boxes of the grid. Empty cells are indicated by the character '.'.

  • for loop row and column

  • loop 1 - 9, check if the number is valid on board[i][j], then recursive check new board

標定 box裡 1~9宮格的位置

  • box_row = (row / 3) * 3 + i / 3

  • box_col = (col / 3) * 3 + i % 3
