Instantly solves most Sudoku puzzles. Just input a puzzle in the boxes. This was written in AS3, and on a fast computer can solve most puzzles in a hundredth of a second.

That isn't really the purpose at all. You are supposed to input a Sudoku puzzle from a newspaper, magazine, app or website in to this app and it will be solved for you.
Nothing phenominal but it works
Even though this kind of defeats the purpose of sudoku, (sorry, but it's true) this is a very helpful tool when you just cant solve a puzzle, or for beginners wanting to double check their results. The algorithm behind thismust ve complex, and i give huge props to the programmer.The only reason I didnt give this full score was that it was kind of cheating. Thats the only reason. Good job!

Thanks for recognizing the complexity of writing a program to solve a Sudoku puzzle, I think most people cant really appreciate this aspect. And I see what you mean that it is cheating, but this has mostly been a fun puzzle for me because it has been much harder to write than solving any single Sudoku out there.
Well, atleast it works. That's the important thing. If I did soduku's I'd use this to cheat, but it's nothing that I probably will ever use again.
