How to play Sudoku for beginners PDF?

To learn Sudoku with a beginner PDF, print an easy one-puzzle-per-page sheet with answers. Fill each row, column, and 3x3 box with 1 through 9 exactly once, starting where the existing clues leave only one possible number.

Use this solving routine

Read the complete beginner Sudoku guide once, then work one box at a time. Pick a nearly full 3x3 box, list the missing digits, and check the crossing rows and columns to see where each digit can go. Repeat the same scan across a nearly full row or column.

Write small candidate numbers in a cell when two or three choices remain. Erase a candidate whenever that number appears in the same row, column, or box. You never need arithmetic, and an easy puzzle should not require guessing.
