Sudoku is a logical symbol placement puzzle which was originally created in the United States in 1979 under the name of “Number Place”; however, it did not gain popularity until 1986 when it caught on in Japan. After 19 years Sudoku spread from Japan to Great Britain, and from there it continued to spread across the rest of the world and into every home though newspapers and the internet. Because of this I doubt anyone reading this has never seen a Sudoku puzzle, but just in case.

The name Sudoku itself is an abbreviation of a longer Japanese phrase that is literally translated to “single digit.” This refers to the fact that numbers in a Sudoku game can not be duplicated in the same row, column or region.

The premise of Sudoku is fairly simple: each grid is divided into 3 squares by 3 squares (for a total of 3 regions), and then each region is subdivided into 9 squares.

Just select the options you want, and once you are done adjusting the adsense code the creator will update your code and you can move on with life. The creator includes an advanced color picker to make it easy for you to pick just the right color. Originally, I made the following creator for my Wordpress Adsense widget; however, I decided that it was being wasted, and I wanted to see if I could make Wordpress pages behave as real HTML files, so this became a one-day project to get it working.
