Challenge #200: Sudoku Solver

JoshuaGostick
Quasar

Finally the 200th Weekly Challenge!

 

Initially tried to build an iterative macro that tried every combination of numbers to input in the Sudoku table but then realised that this was going to take too long so optimised the macro by limiting to only the possible numbers that can be inputted.
