Abstract

Sudoku is a challenging, interesting and brain tasking game. Is there a correlation between human intelligence and human Sudoku solving ability? This research work uses as a case study, a class of third year computer science students of the University of Jos, to determine whether there exists a correlation between an individual’s Sudoku solving ability and his intelligence.
