        //
        // If we were to use brute force to solve a 9x9 Sudoku puzzle with 17 clues,
        // we would need to check all possible combinations of digits for the empty cells
        // until we find a combination that satisfies all the constraints of Sudoku.
        // Since there are 64 empty cells in a 9x9 Sudoku puzzle with 17 clues, each of
        // which can be filled with 9 possible digits, the total number of possible
        // combinations is 9^64.
        //
        // This is an astronomically large number, and it would take an incredibly long
        // time to check all possible combinations, even with the most powerful computers
        // available today. In fact, it's estimated that it would take billions of years
        // to solve a single 9x9 Sudoku puzzle using brute force.
        //
        // Fortunately, there are much more efficient algorithms and strategies that can
        // be used to solve Sudoku puzzles without having to resort to brute force. One
        // such technique is called backtracking. With backtracking, we repeatedly try
        // choices we can make to solve a problem, continually building on previous choices.
        // When we determine that a particular choice will not work, we backtrack to an earlier
        // decision point and try out a different choice. When we employ this strategy,
        // we don't have to check every possible solution to a problem independently. When we
        // backtrack, we eliminate a very, very large number of possible solutions and reduce
        // the search space significantly.
        //
        // On my machine, the backtracking framework solves the puzzle below in about 1 minute.
        // If you do everything correctly, you should see a message stating that the program
        // backtracked 58,192,225 times.
        //
        // In this implementation of a Sudoku solver, we start at the upper left cell in the
        // grid, working left to right, trying out possible digits from 1 to 9. When we cannot
        // place a digit in a cell based on information we already have, we do not bother to
        // try it. When we can place a digit in a cell, we need to investigate whether that choice
        // can be fruitful in determining a solution. If we determine that the previous choice
        // we made cannot be fruitful, all possible solutions with that digit in that cell are
        // abandoned, and the next digit in that cell is tried. This process continues until all
        // empty cells are filled with valid digits, and we arrive at a solution to the puzzle.
        // If there is no solution, the puzzle is defective: the grid with the clues originally
        // provided would not form a valid puzzle.
