Today I got a message that was sent to me through the support link in the sudoku facebook application.  I’ve removed the name of the sender to protect the guilty.

To whom it may concern,

My name is ****** ******* and I am an IT student doing a university project.  The project is made up of two phases.  Phase One is to write a programme for the Sudoko game in Java or C++ and the second phase is to get the programe to solve the solution for the game
automatically.

I was writing to enquire as to whether you would be able to assist me, by sending me the code for the project mentioned above?

Any assistance would be much appreciated,

Kind Regards and thank you in advanced,

******

Bold and lazy. Actually, “bold and lazy” kind of reminds me of me in college, but the difference is I think I would have enjoyed the challenge of writing a sudoku solver.
