Project Title: Sudoku Solver & Player

Overview:
The Sudoku Solver & Player is a logic-based puzzle game application that allows users to play Sudoku or have the game automatically solved using algorithms. Sudoku is a 9x9 grid puzzle where the player fills in numbers from 1 to 9 such that each number appears only once in each row, column, and 3x3 subgrid.

Core Features:

• Interactive Sudoku board for user input.
• Option to generate random puzzles or load custom ones.
• Manual gameplay mode with validation of entries.
• Auto-solve feature that uses a backtracking algorithm or other logic-based methods.
• Visual step-by-step solving (optional).
• Timer, error checking, and difficulty levels can be added.

Technologies Commonly Used:

• Python (with Tkinter or Pygame)
• JavaScript (with HTML/CSS for web)
• Java (with Swing or JavaFX)
• C# (with Windows Forms or Unity)

How It Works:

1. The player can input numbers manually or let the game generate a puzzle.
2. In player mode, the user fills in the grid, and the game checks for correctness.
3. In solver mode, the algorithm (often backtracking) fills in the grid logically.
4. The board updates with correct values until the puzzle is solved.
5. The game ends when the board is completely and correctly filled.

Learning Objectives:

• Understanding constraint-based problem solving
• Implementing recursive algorithms like backtracking
• Creating grid-based GUI interfaces
• Enhancing logic validation and error handling
• Blending game design with algorithmic thinking
