Using the strong link between a pattern and its spoiler, one hopes for an AIC to find common eliminations. Here's a first try...
- Code: Select all
2r6c6 = 2r3c6 - 4r3c6;
/
DS = 5r6c6
\
2r6c6 = 2r6c1 - 2r6c34;
But, is this a valid chain notation? Is there something simpler?
2r6c6 = 2r3c6 - 4r3c6;
/
DS = 5r6c6
\
(5=2)r6c1 - 2r6c34;

2r6c6 = 2r3c6 - 4r3c6;
/
DS = 5r6c6
\
(5=2)r6c1 - 2r6c34;
I do not see any one-line AIC to gather those two...Cenoman

How can -24r6c6 be a solution when 4r6c6 is part of the solution ?
@Steve
I understand your logic (and I like it !) but when you write:Using the strong link between a pattern and its spoiler, one hopes for an AIC to find common eliminations. Here's a first try...
- Code: Select all
2r6c6 = 2r3c6 - 4r3c6;
/
DS = 5r6c6
\
2r6c6 = 2r6c1 - 2r6c34;
But, is this a valid chain notation? Is there something simpler?
I can't see the strong link 2r6c6 = 2r6c1...
I would have understood:
- Code: Select all
2r6c6 = 2r3c6 - 4r3c6;
/
DS = 5r6c6
\
(5=2)r6c1 - 2r6c34;
