What is a latin square?

@tinkerer_2: It's basically a sudoku without boxes. Each row and column contains the same numbers, once each.

I was confused by the ruleset, I thought each row/column in the latin square had to be a different order of the set, not that each latin square had a different set of the numbers.

@fitzie: Thank you for the feedback. I have updated the rules for better clarity.

Vielleicht sollst Du die Beschränkung klarer formulieren, d.h. innerhalb von jedem lateinischen Quadrat alle Zeilen/Spalten derselbe Satz von 3 Ziffern enthalten, und dann der Unterschied zwischen den Quadraten liegt.
Ansonsten war es viel Spaß beim Lösen.

@CHRosenthal: Vielen Dank für die Rückmeldung. Ich habe die Regeln zur besseren Übersichtlichkeit aktualisiert.
