"""Generator for Sudoku graphs

This module gives a generator for n-Sudoku graphs. It can be used to develop
algorithms for solving or generating Sudoku puzzles.

A completed Sudoku grid is a 9x9 array of integers between 1 and 9, with no
number appearing twice in the same row, column, or 3x3 box.

+---------+---------+---------+
| | 8 6 4 | | 3 7 1 | | 2 5 9 |
| | 3 2 5 | | 8 4 9 | | 7 6 1 |
| | 9 7 1 | | 2 6 5 | | 8 4 3 |
+---------+---------+---------+
| | 4 3 6 | | 1 9 2 | | 5 8 7 |
| | 1 9 8 | | 6 5 7 | | 4 3 2 |
| | 2 5 7 | | 4 8 3 | | 9 1 6 |
+---------+---------+---------+

The Sudoku graph is an undirected graph with 81 vertices, corresponding to
the cells of a Sudoku grid. It is a regular graph of degree 20. Two distinct
vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding cells belong to the
same row, column, or box. A completed Sudoku grid corresponds to a vertex
coloring of the Sudoku graph with nine colors.

More generally, the n-Sudoku graph is a graph with n^4 vertices, corresponding
to the cells of an n^2 by n^2 grid. Two distinct vertices are adjacent if and
only if they belong to the same row, column, or n by n box.

    The n-Sudoku graph is a graph with n^4 vertices, corresponding to the
    cells of an n^2 by n^2 grid. Two distinct vertices are adjacent if and
    only if they belong to the same row, column, or n-by-n box.

    Parameters
    ----------
    n: integer
       The order of the Sudoku graph, equal to the square root of the
       number of rows. The default is 3.

    -------
    NetworkX graph
        The n-Sudoku graph Sud(n).
