The Theory of Sudoku

Abstract
Have you ever wondered how to play Sudoku or what strategies could be used to solve it? While it is a logic-based puzzle, letters or other symbols could be used in place of numbers. There is no arithmetic involved; just logic! You can do Sudoku by yourself or with a partner. Interesting facts about Sudoku and some strategies will be presented. Participants will then have an opportunity to solve some Sudoku puzzles themselves.
