Odd/Even Consecutive Killer Sudoku 4
Standard Sudoku rules apply
Standard Killer Sudoku Rules apply
Digits in caged areas add up to the number in the upper left corner. And digits can not repeat in cages.
Killer cages are noted with Even/Odd/? clues
Each letter represents an Even or Odd or unknown digit.
A single ? would indicate a single digit total.
A double digit clue like OE could be 12, 14, or possibly 36.
Shaded cages MUST contain a set of consecutive digits (not necessarily in order)
Unshaded cages must NOT have consecutive digits (at least one digit must interupt a string) (ex. 4561, would be fine)
There is also an inequality symbol showing that r1c2 must be less than r1c3
Zero IS an even number

Solution code: Row 4 + Column 4

Lovely puzzle but probably a 4* for me.
@bigger - you may want to consider the shading of the cells you mentioned.
