ReplyDeleteHello, Akash. I'm new to sudoku solving and I'm loving your puzzles. I started with 99th and solved most of them going back in the archive, but I have a problem with this one, as I probably don't understand the rules.
ReplyDeleteI've had a stare at this, and was wandering about r3c2. As I understand it, r3c2345 have to be consecutive, because there's a dot between all of them. So now r3c2 can't be 1, because it would need 4 in r3c5, and it's already a 4 in that row. Same with 2, 3, and 4 obviously. There's a 5 in it's column and 6 in it's box. It can't be 7, because it would need a 10 in r3c5.
There's clearly something wrong with my understanding of the rules, as Aashay and Gaurav solved it, but I can't quite get what it is.
It would be awesome if you could help.
Thank you for all the amazing puzzles on the blog.
Cheers
R3c2345 can be 9876 or 8765 as well
DeleteWell, of course they can. Thanks!
