Normal sudoku rules apply.
A digit in a circle is part of a string of 3 digits in a straight line, going either horizontally or vertically. (Not diagonally.) The digit in the circle is always at the start or end of the string, never in the middle. The digit in the circle is the sum of the other two digits in the string.
(Could the digit in the circle be the part of more than one such string? And be the sum of the other two digits in those strings? Yes and yes.)
All possible circles are given.

My solution code is rejected, but everything seems to be in order. Might the puzzle have multiple solutions?

Doh! I totally missed there being a negative constraint.

Slight change to wording of rules.
