I was doing a Sudoku from a book and my answere was correct and the published answer was correct. This is the first time this happened. Is it possible to have two correct answers to a puzzle. Very Happy

I, too, had an answer that was different than the published solution with a sudoku puzzle from"Super Sudoku Puzzles" Vol 10 published by Kappa. Since I have never heard of this happening before, I was wondering if I can post the unsolved puzzle, my solution and the published solution. If this is permissible, what is the best way to do this? Is it possible to post images?[/img]

Yes, you can post images. You can also post a grid. I wrote an article on how to post a properly aligned grid, here:

P.S. Does the introduction to your book say anything about unique solutions?

I found the reason why they were different. I had written out a duplicate of the puzzle after the first was wrong. One the duplicate, I forgot to include one of the printed numbers. It is very interesting how the absence of one number can allow for a totally different working answer... essentially one number juxtaposed between two boxes.

Thanks for your response! I see how to place a grid in a non HTML format, thanks to your posting.
