Talk:Sudoku/REXX

history of the REXX program

This REXX program started as a simple program just to supply hints to difficult sudoku puzzles.

As it evolved, it provided more types (kinds) of hints, eventually evolving into solving the puzzle.

One of the design criteria was to present the sudoku puzzle in a conventional manner as possible, and
to display it as large as possible while still fitting on a ("standard") terminal screen (a "DOS prompt" windows).

Move?

Hi Gerald. Could the page be moved to be called "Sudoku.rex" to better fit with the rule for task titles?

(And similar for the other pages)? --Paddy3118 07:29, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

It probably ought to be a child of Sudoku, which is the only page that refers to it at the moment. –Donal Fellows 13:38, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
