1) Simplest-first solution: nothing more complicated than bivalue-chains[3]:x-wing-in-columns: n5{c4 c7}{r2 r4} ==> r4c6 ≠ 5, r2c8 ≠ 5
finned-x-wing-in-columns: n2{c7 c5}{r2 r4} ==> r4c6 ≠ 2
biv-chain[3]: r2c5{n6 n2} - r2c7{n2 n5} - b2n5{r2c4 r3c6} ==> r3c6 ≠ 6
hidden-single-in-a-column ==> r4c6 = 6
biv-chain[3]: r4c5{n2 n8} - r3n8{c5 c6} - c6n5{r3 r6} ==> r6c6 ≠ 2
singles ==> r1c6 = 2, r2c5 = 6, r3c8 = 6
biv-chain[3]: r4c7{n2 n5} - c8n5{r6 r7} - b9n2{r7c8 r7c9} ==> r6c9 ≠ 2
singles ==> r7c9 = 2, r7c8 = 5
biv-chain[3]: r6n4{c5 c6} - r6n5{c6 c9} - r3c9{n5 n4} ==> r3c5 ≠ 4

2) Single-step solutions:There are 13 W1-anti-backdoors: n4r1c4 n1r1c9 n1r2c4 n5r2c7 n5r3c6 n4r3c9 n5r4c4 n2r4c7 n9r6c8 n8r7c4 n4r7c6 n1r8c8 n9r8c9
12 of which give rise to a 1-step solution with whip[≤7]
Here are the simplest two, requiring only z-chains[4] in cn-space:
- Code: Select all
z-chain-cn[4]: c6n6{r3 r4} - c6n8{r4 r7} - c4n8{r7 r4} - c4n5{r4 .} ==> r3c6 ≠ 5
stte
OR:
- Code: Select all
z-chain-rc[4]: r1c6{n4 n2} - r6c6{n2 n5} - r4c4{n5 n8} - r7c4{n8 .} ==> r7c6 ≠ 4
