Is this code anything close to idiomatic Jess? The way that I am expressing that all 9 squares must have unique values seems like it must not be the "right" way.
There really isn't a better way to express this rule. It could be made somewhat more efficient by rearranging the patterns, but just in terms of expressing the uniqueness of the square contents given these data structures, that's about it.
If it's any consolation, I've never seen a real problem like his that needed to
be solved -- this kind of thing usually only comes up in puzzles!
