1 中文题目

编写一个程序，通过填充空格来解决数独问题。数独的解法需 遵循如下规则：

• 数字 1-9 在每一行只能出现一次。
• 数字 1-9 在每一列只能出现一次。
• 数字 1-9 在每一个以粗实线分隔的 3x3 宫内只能出现一次。（请参考示例图）
• 数独部分空格内已填入了数字，空白格用 ‘.’ 表示。

示例：

输入：board = [["5","3",".",".","7",".",".",".","."],["6",".",".","1","9","5",".",".","."],[".","9","8",".",".",".",".","6","."],["8",".",".",".","6",".",".",".","3"],["4",".",".","8",".","3",".",".","1"],["7",".",".",".","2",".",".",".","6"],[".","6",".",".",".",".","2","8","."],[".",".",".","4","1","9",".",".","5"],[".",".",".",".","8",".",".","7","9"]]
输出：[["5","3","4","6","7","8","9","1","2"],["6","7","2","1","9","5","3","4","8"],["1","9","8","3","4","2","5","6","7"],["8","5","9","7","6","1","4","2","3"],["4","2","6","8","5","3","7","9","1"],["7","1","3","9","2","4","8","5","6"],["9","6","1","5","3","7","2","8","4"],["2","8","7","4","1","9","6","3","5"],["3","4","5","2","8","6","1","7","9"]]
解释：输入的数独如上图所示，唯一有效的解决方案如下所示：

提示：

• board.length == 9
• board[i].length == 9
• board[i][j] 是一位数字或者 ‘.’
• 题目数据 保证 输入数独仅有一个解

2 求解方法：递归+回溯法

2.1 方法思路

方法核心

使用回溯算法解决数独问题，使用三个二维数组记录数字使用情况，采用逐个位置填写的策略，通过位置编号简化行列索引计算。

实现步骤

（1）初始化阶段：

• 创建三个二维数组记录每行、每列和每个3x3方块中数字的使用情况
• 遍历数独板，标记已有数字的使用情况
• 将问题转化为填写空位的问题

（2）回溯过程：

• 使用位置编号（0-80）表示当前填写位置
• 通过整除和取余计算行列索引
• 如果当前位置已有数字，继续下一个位置。否则尝试填入1-9的数字

（3）验证过程：

• 检查当前数字是否可以在行中使用，检查当前数字是否可以在列中使用，检查当前数字是否可以在3x3方块中使用
• 所有检查都通过才能填入数字

方法示例

输入数独板示例：
[["5","3",".",".","7",".",".",".","."],["6",".",".","1","9","5",".",".","."],[".","9","8",".",".",".",".","6","."],["8",".",".",".","6",".",".",".","3"],["4",".",".","8",".","3",".",".","1"],["7",".",".",".","2",".",".",".","6"],[".","6",".",".",".",".","2","8","."],[".",".",".","4","1","9",".",".","5"],[".",".",".",".","8",".",".","7","9"]
]执行过程示例（以填写第一个空位为例）：1. 定位第一个空位：- 位置 (0,2)- box_index = (0 // 3) * 3 + 2 // 3 = 02. 尝试填入数字：- 检查数字1：已在同行/列/方块使用- 检查数字2：已在同行/列/方块使用- 检查数字4：可以使用- 填入数字4并继续递归3. 如果后续填写失败：- 回溯到当前位置- 清除数字4- 尝试下一个可能的数字4. 递归和回溯过程继续，直到找到完整解答

2.2 Python代码

2.3 复杂度分析

• 时间复杂度：O(9^m)，m是空格的数量
  • 每个空格最多尝试9个数字
  • 实际运行时间因剪枝而大大减少
• 空间复杂度：O(m)，m是空格的数量（递归栈深度）
  • 三个固定大小的二维数组（81个布尔值）
