solution notation

Instead of writing in the candidate numbers in empty spaces, use dots (periods), with three dots across the top of the space to be 1, 2, & 3; three dots across the middle to be 4, 5, and 6; and three across the bottom to be 7, 8, & 9. Then, for example, if the three candidates are 1, 5, and 9, you will have only a dot in upper left corner, a dot in center of the space, and a dot in lower right corner. Advantages: 1- less writing to erase, 2- ease of identifying pairs or trios, etc., and 3- you may even just write the final number over the dots and not bother to erase.
