The Long Lockout
(Published on 19. August 2021, 13:04 by riffclown)
Training Puzzle 2 of 3
From the minds of riffclown and Tallcat , introducing Lockout lines. Lockout Lines are Anti-between lines with a strong dash of Whisper logic.
This is the second introductory puzzle and is provided merely to familiarize with the new rule-set and associated logic.
Normal Sudoku Rules apply. Lockout Lines- Endpoints (Diamonds) must differ by at least 4. Digits on the line must be different than the endpoint values and must not fall between them. Each Lockout segment is treated as an independent Lockout Line. Digits can repeat if allowed by other rules/box boundariesSolution code: Solution code Columns 3 and 5 top to bottom

Loving the new ruleset. The first puzzle I wasn't so sure, but now that I'm getting a handle on it, I'm really liking it!

At first, I thought I might need to put a note up on my laptop - "not between, NOT between!". Fortunately, that was not necessary.
Nice concept.

Fantastic little puzzle! It makes you think about the right things for an introductory puzzle.

I will be posting the third puzzle "Think Outside The Box" - likely on Saturday. It's a good step up in use of the logic.
