How to play Sudoku

Sudoku is a logic puzzle played on a 9×9 grid split into nine 3×3 boxes. Some cells start with clue numbers. Your job is to fill in the rest so that every row, every column, and every 3×3 box contains the digits 1 through 9 exactly once. There is no arithmetic and no guessing — every puzzle here has a single solution reachable by logic alone.
