Elementary [[solving technique]], using the fact that only a single [[candidate]] is left for a [[constraint]].

'''Singles''' are often ignored when players communicate about the way they solve a [[Sudoku]]. Singles are the only solving techniques which deal with immediate placements. Other techniques can only accomplish eliminations, but may lead to an immediate single.

There are 2 types of singles:

; [[Naked Single]]
: Only a single candidate left in a cell.

; [[Hidden Single]]
: Only a single candidate left for a particular [[digit]] in a [[house]].
