Sudoku (数独, sūdoku?), also known as Number Place or Nanpure, is a logic-based placement puzzle. The aim of the puzzle is to enter a numerical digit from 1 through 9 in each cell of a 9×9 grid made up of 3×3 subgrids (called "regions"), starting with various digits given in some cells (the "givens"); each row, column, and region must contain only one instance of each numeral. Completing the puzzle requires patience and logical ability. An early variant of the puzzle was published in a French newspaper in 1895 and may have been influenced by the great Swiss mathemetician Leonhard Euler, who repopularized Latin squares.
The modern game Sudoku was invented in Indianapolis in 1979. Interest in Sudoku stems from a revival in Japan in 1986, when the venerable puzzle publisher Nikoli discovered the game as invented by Howard Garns and initially distributed for children under the name "Number Place" in an older Dell Magazines publication, and republished the format leading to widespread international popularity in 2005
