Model answer: Below is a direct “read‐off” of the puzzle as shown, placing each visible digit in its corresponding cell and using a dot (“.”) for every empty cell. Rows are listed top to bottom; columns left to right: Row 1: ...4..8.. Row 2: 6..7....1 Row 3: 72.9.5..4 Row 4: 97..4...3 Row 5: 7...5.8.. Row 6: 89...6.5. Row 7: 94178.... Row 8: 764...... Row 9: .......27 Hence, the 9×9 grid (with no extra spaces) is: ...4..8.. 6..7....1 72.9.5..4 97..4...3 7...5.8.. 89...6.5. 94178.... 764...... .......27

Model answer: Step 1: The task is to extract the digits from a 9x9 Sudoku board and output them as a plain-text 9x9 grid, where each row represents a sample of nine characters. Step 2: To solve this, we first need to identify and extract the visible numbers on the Sudoku grid. This involves understanding the structure of a Sudoku puzzle and the rules governing its completion. Step 3: A Sudoku puzzle consists of a 9x9 grid, divided into nine 3x3 sub-grids or "regions." The objective is to fill in the missing digits, represented by empty cells (denoted by.), such that each row, column, and region contains the numbers from 1 to 9 without repeating any number within the same row, column, or region. Step 4: Given the complexity and nuances involved in solving a Sudoku puzzle manually, an efficient approach is to utilize computer programming for its automated solving capabilities. This involves adapting algorithms like "Backtracking," which systematically constructs candidate solutions to the puzzle by iteratively checking for valid placements of digits across the board, while efficiently removing impossible combinations. Step 5: In the case of extracting the digits without solving the puzzle, we can leverage image processing techniques to detect text in the image provided. The text, being the digits, can be isolated and extracted using computer vision algorithms and libraries, following which, it needs to be organized into a 9x9 grid structure for presentation. Step 6: After identifying and extracting the digits, we would then position these individually in a 9x9 grid format. Every digit will have its position documented based on its location - starting from the top-left corner and moving to the right and then down. Step 7: This careful organization ensures that the digits are accurately represented in a comprehensible 9x9 grid format, allowing for easy visualization and understanding of the Sudoku puzzle.
