Popularity and Gender Differences in Solving Sudoku Game among Some Sampled Secondary School Students in Lagos, Nigeria

~ E1335ba086527b2c109cc00e6c014cc5.200x200
The 668 students from 3 secondary schools were randomly selected and were given different Sudoku of 3 levels of difficulty namely: easy, medium and hard. All of them were given the same time to provide the different solutions. Hu used the same level of Sudoku in their research but this research extended to different levels with the aim of testing the popularity of the game among the students...
