Fill in the grid with the numbers 1-9 so that the numbers are not repeated in each row, column, and each 3x3 area (box) separated by a bold line.
The clues in the cells are represented by displaying them in segments. Not all segments are given.
To prevent ambiguity, the style in which each number is displayed is provided under the grid.

It's very interesting, but I think it could save some time if we switch to the candidate number.
