this one should be more challenging:
Code: Select all
....1...2..3....4..5...67.......74..8.......1..53.......74...3..6....9..2...8....  ED=9.8/9.8/3.4

I generated half a million puzzles - and only one pearl
Code: Select all
+---+---+---+                 
|...|.1.|..2|                 
|..8|...|.4.|                 
|.5.|..6|7..|                 
+---+---+---+                 
|...|..7|5..|                 
|1..|...|..8|                 
|..4|2..|...|                 
+---+---+---+                 
|..2|8..|.3.|                 
|.6.|...|1..|                 
|7..|.5.|...|                 
+---+---+---+   ED=9.0/7.3/6.7

Projection revealed a total of 1.25 million minimal puzzles for this pattern ....and just under a million different puzzles found but slowing now..
