Skyscraper Index
(Published on 11. July 2022, 19:32 by jwsinclair)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Shaded cells serve as both index clues and skyscraper clues.
Index: if a shaded cell contains a horizontal arrow and is in column N, the digit in that cell indicates the column in which the digit N appears in that row; if a shaded cell contains a vertical arrow and is in row N, the digit in that cell indicates the row in which the digit N appears in that column.
Skyscraper: numbers in the grid represent the heights of skyscrapers, and digits in shaded cells indicate the number of skyscrapers visible in that row or column, starting from the edge of the grid and looking in the direction of the arrow.
Digits in cells separated by a white dot are consecutive.
