Constructor Detail

### Sudoku

    public Sudoku(InputStream stream)
           throws IOException

  Set up a puzzle board to the given size. Boards may be asymmetric, but the squares will always be divided to be more cells wide than they are tall. For example, a 6x6 puzzle will make sub-squares that are 3x2 (3 cells wide, 2 cells tall). Clearly that means the board is made up of 2x3 sub-squares.

  Parameters:
    `stream` - The input stream to read the data from
  Throws:
    `IOException`
