Tell us what’s happening:

Hi, everyone! I don’t understand the instruction of this step, can anyone help fix my cods?

Your code so far

class Board:
    def __init__(self, board):
        self.board = board

    def find_empty_cell(self):
        for row, contents in enumerate(self.board):
            try:
                col = contents.index(0)
                return row, col
            except ValueError:
                pass
        return None

    def valid_in_row(self, row, num):
        return num not in self.board[row]

    def valid_in_col(self, col, num):
        return all(self.board[row][col] != num for row in range(9))

    def valid_in_square(self, row, col, num):
        row_start = (row // 3) * 3
        col_start = (col // 3) * 3
        for row_no in range(row_start, row_start + 3):
            for col_no in range(col_start, col_start + 3):
                if self.board[row_no][col_no] == num:
                    return False
        return True

    def is_valid(self, empty, num):
        row, col = empty
        valid_in_row = self.valid_in_row(row, num)
        valid_in_col = self.valid_in_col(col, num)
        valid_in_square = self.valid_in_square(row, col, num)
        return all([valid_in_row, valid_in_col, valid_in_square])

Hi @Yuxiao

You should set the current cell value back to 0 after the innermost if statement.

Your code is assigning 0 to guess

Please read the instructions carefully on what you need to do for this step.

Happy coding
