The algorithms will tell you if there’s no solution to the puzzle. If there are multiple solutions, the algorithms will find them all.

In the early 1990s he returned to linear algebra, developing algorithms and implementations in LinBox, a software library for high performance computations with sparse integer matrices. Misc ...

The word“algebra” may evoke memories of complicated-looking polynomial equations like ax2 + bx + c = 0 or plots of polynomial functions like y = ax2 + bx + c.

These algorithms are based on describing the structure of the special ring – called an ideal – these game board clues make within the larger ring. The algorithms will tell you if there’s no ...

Turning Sudoku into algebra takes a fair bit of work. Courtney Gibbons What do we get by doing this complicated translation into algebra? Well, we get to use late-20th century algorithms to figure out ...
