Less Addition, Please (Sudoku)
(Published on 24. August 2021, 14:55 by PDN777)
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits on a thermometer must strictly increase from the bulb end. Cells with grey circles must contain odd numbers. Cells with grey squares must contain even numbers. Neighboring digits marked with a white Kropki dot are consecutive. Not all white dots are given. Digits in a cage must sum to the little number in the upper left, and may not repeat in the cage. Numbers outside the grid indicate the sum of the digits on their indicated diagonal. Digits may repeat when otherwise allowed. As always, comments welcome!
Solution code: First row of puzzle, and fourth column of puzzle (read top to bottom). Enter as a string of 18 digits, no spaces.
