Cost function for Sudoku

I am trying to create a cost function in Python for my 9x9 Sudoku grid (shown below):
m = m
vals = np.arange(1,10)
for i in range(0,9): #to do the same for columns
m[:,i] = np.random.choice(vals,size=9,replace=False)
print(m.astype(int))
I need the cost function to return a 1 if duplication in the columns so that I can then sum these to get an overall score for the grid, before implementing a loop to randomly sample from 1 to 9 until the score reaches 0 and hence is solved.
My current attempt is below:
for j in (1,9):
if m[1,j] == m[:,j]:
return 1
return 0
I am looking to try it for 1 column first then expand as I get more confident with the code.
This is just the first condition for my cost function but as I'm new to Python this is causing an issue to implement. Can anyone show me along the right lines please.
