Counting by Vs and Xs
(Published on 18. May 2022, 14:50 by Hrafnsvaengr)
Just a small trifle of a puzzle which turned out surprisingly well, for humble beginnings.
A link for the puzzle on f-puzzles can be found
here and on Cracking the Cryptic
here.
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Cells joined by an X sum to 10; those joined by a V sum to 5. Not all Xs or Vs are necessarily given.
- Clues around the outside of the grid give the sum of the first X digits seen by the clue, where X is the first digit in that row or column.
Solution code: Row 8 followed by column 5 without commas or spaces.
