Wanda's Hex

Danke!
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- In cages, digits must sum to the small clue in the top left corner of the cage.
- Clues outside the grid give the sum of digits along the indicated diagonal, which may repeat if allowed by other rules.
- The red line is the boundary of Wanda's Hex, all cells and sums enclosed by the boundary are being hexed such that their values are expressed differently.
- Cells on the Hex boundary split their value in half. The half outside is unaffected, while the half inside is hexed.
- Any clue that crosses the Hex is given by crudely summing the two totals from inside and outside the Hex. For example, the 20 cage in column 3 includes three and a half hexed cells which should first be summed, then combined with the remaining half a cell outside the Hex. In cases where these totals cannot be combined, the clue is given as NAN (not a number).
- The effect of the Hex should be discovered by the solver. All clues are numerically consistent.
Lösungscode: Zeile 8, Zeile 9

Certainly one of the most challenging puzzles I've ever solved, I'm glad I stuck with it!

I didn't comment on this puzzle when I did it but I found the logic absolutely brilliant. It definitely requires the right sort of knowledge to solve, however.

I have no idea how to get started on this puzzle. The rules are so vague that I feel you can put in any random combination of numbers and justify it.
* What does "expressed differently" even mean?? Can it be literally *any* function (1 -> 7, 2 -> -5, 3 -> 3.1415...) or is something like "an algebraic expression" (2x, x^2, etc).
* What does "cannot be combined" mean?? Is it "Not a Number" in the sense of a floating point calculation? What number system are you in? If we're dealing with real numbers then the square root of a negative number is "not a number" but it's well defined if we're dealing with imaginary numbers.

An epic quest! Figuring out the mystery isn't that hard if you get your brain on the right track, but you're still left with a very challenging puzzle that can lead you a merry dance if you let it

This is an incredible puzzle that's more than a little cryptic, but very, very beautiful once you get the trick!

What bothers me is the 24.3 cage, which I consider to be a number, and the fact that the LKs have a property of not being a number. I guess you mean they sum to something like 22.5, or whatever, but then I don't understand why there is a 24.3 cage...
