What alphabet you use is irrelevant. Sudokus has really nothing to do
with numbers. You can use numbers, as well as let
you dont measure single run, you measure multiple runs using the
"timeit" module (for me 1000 repeats was about right).
here are some results which i recorded when i was implementing Sudoku
solver (on AMD Athlon 1.25GHz, using the sample shown on www.sudoku.com
front page):
brute: 10
27ms == 0.027s
How do you have a 16x16 grid for soduku? Are you using 16 digits? 0-F?
The one I am using has 9 digits, 9 squares of 9 cells each, or 9x9
cells.
The least efficient part of the algorithm is that part to calculate
what to put in a hole (as anyone might've guessed.) My algorithm

Maybe the other implementations also have errors? Well, I'm not saying
