Q: How do we use constraint propagation to solve the naked twins problem?
A: 1.Go through all unit in the unitlists, find naked twins boxes in each unit;2.if the number of naked twins boxes equals to the length of naked twins value, elimate other boxes using the digit in naked twins value.
Q: How do we use constraint propagation to solve the diagonal sudoku problem?
A: 1.Create diagonal units(using zip function, there are two diagonal units), and append into the unitlists;2.then use naked twins function、 eliminate function、 only_choice function to reduce unnecessary digit;3.finally use depth first search to solve the problem.
This project requires Python 3.
We recommend students install Anaconda, a pre-packaged Python distribution that contains all of the necessary libraries and software for this project. Please try using the environment we provided in the Anaconda lesson of the Nanodegree.
Optionally, you can also install pygame if you want to see your visualization. If you've followed our instructions for setting up our conda environment, you should be all set.
If not, please see how to download pygame here.

Before submitting your solution to a reviewer, you are required to submit your project to Udacity's Project Assistant, which will provide some initial feedback.
The setup is simple. If you have not installed the client tool already, then you may do so with the command pip install udacity-pa
.
To submit your code to the project assistant, run udacity submit
from within the top-level directory of this project. You will be prompted for a username and password. If you login using google or facebook, visit this link for alternate login instructions.
This process will create a zipfile in your top-level directory named sudoku-.zip. This is the file that you should submit to the Udacity reviews system.
