View source for Column

A vertical line containing 9 [[cell]]s.

Together, the '''columns''' form one of the 3 main [[division]]s of the grid.

Each column is also a [[house]], because it must contain [[digit]]s 1 through 9.

Columns are usually numbered from '''1''' to '''9''' from left to right.

In solving techniques which affect either [[row]]s or columns, the term [[line]] is used to represent a house that can either be a row or a column.
