Jigsaw Sudoku: Rules and Explanatory Diagrams

The rules of Jigsaw Sudoku are simple.

1. The rules of classic Sudoku apply:

     - enter a number between 1 and 9 in each empty cell of the 9x9 grid.

     - each row, column, and block (or box) must contain each number exactly once.

2. The difference is that, instead of 3×3 square blocks, the blocks have irregular shapes.
