Normal sudoku rules apply for the 9x9 grid.
Skyscraper: Each digit in the 9x9 grid represents the height of a building in its cell. Taller buildings obstruct the view of shorter ones behind them.
Cells outside the grid must contain the digit equal to the number of buildings visible from that vantage point in the adjacent row or column.
XV: Digits joined by an X sum to 10. Digits joined by a V sum to 5.
All possible Xs and Vs are marked.
Solution code: Row 11 (skyscraper cells), 9 digits left to right.
