Someone in my class said that this takes all the fun out of sudoku puzzle solving. Thoughts?

Nice connection! I like it! I'll try this process out with some teachers and point them here. Thanks!

Thanks for the comment, Ken! I had originally made this worksheet as a handout to go with a presentation for my contemporary and applied mathematics class and subsequently used it for a small demo in my discrete structures class, and it served each well. If you or a colleague can think of anything that would improve it though, please let me know.
