I found an interesting little program that creates Sudoku puzzles in Visual Basic .NET. I have to say that I really love it. But not for the reasons one might expect. I don't love it for the amount of cool features it has. Frankly it doesn't have all the bells and whistles that a lot of Sudoku programs I have seen do have. That is, paradoxically, why I love it. If you are looking for something fun to play with, uh, I mean work with and learn from, over the holiday break this may be just the thing.

I wrote a longer version of this post, with some ideas for modifications of the project, at my high school computer science teacher blog.
