Customizable Sudoku
pip install sudokuaspuzzle==0.1.28
Yet another Sudoku, treated as puzzle and using custom numbering script.
This project started as a replacement (for my own pass-free-time) when Gnome adopted a Sudoku that obscures cells when clicked, making impossible to have a clear view. Numbers were also much smaller then it should be and the size of a minimum board was a really big one. Since Gnome is international, my thought was also to make it available for people that are more used to their numbering system.
Most Sudoku flavors trait the game as a magic square. This one traits it also as a puzzle and it is highly customizable.
Most Sudoku's provide only the basic numbering script.
This package offers the ability to use either the basic script:
or one of the defaults provided:
You can use any «script» you like, as long as the script consists, in Unicode, of only one character for every number, by selecting "custom" and changing the characters.
You can customize the existence of a side bar containing the «remaining pieces». These are the numbers that remain to be placed on the magic square, in order to fill the puzzle.
You can customize most of the colors used in the board.
Currently:
And also
All installed fonts are supported.
A ratio for the font can be customized from 0.4 to 1.0. This ratio is the ratio of the height of character to the height of the cell.
Warning! If font specified and saved in configuration file does no longer exist in the system, Pango will replace it with something probably (but not sure) compatible.
The game is a classic Sudoku game. Fill empty cells in a way that no duplicate numbers exist in any row, column or in any of the 9 sub-squares.
There are three ways to place a number in the "board":
If you want to empty a cell:
Picker window will appear inside the clicked cell (if cell is editable) and will make it current cell.
Most Linux distributions provide a way to install it through their main packaging system.
pip3 install 'sudokuaspuzzle'
pip3 install 'sudokuaspuzzle>=0.1.24' --upgrade
Currently this package does not provide ways of running the game other than the command line. Pip installation also installs the sudokuaspuzzle
«binary». So just type sudokuaspuzzle
in a terminal.
Change appearance (both of the icon and the board) while dragging a number or the clear icon.
