What we are doing

A digit that clashes with another in its row, column or box turns its cell red, and so does the one it clashes with.

```js
// Does the digit at (r, c) clash with another cell in its row, column or box?
function conflict(r, c) {
  const d = grid[r][c]
  if (d === 0) return false
  grid[r][c] = 0
  const ok = canPlace(grid, r, c, d)
  grid[r][c] = d
  return !ok
}

      if (conflict(r, c)) fill = '#fecaca'
```

What it means
