And now a question to DP experts:
Why the pattern (134)r456c3, r46c5, r45c7 is not a deadly pattern ?
According to the definition here, the first two requirements are met:
- 3 solutions
- unchanged footprint
I am stuck with the 3rd requirement "no (cell,value) pairs in common"
pairs in common between what ? I can't catch the meaning of this incomplete assertion. Please help !

In addition, in the referenced document, it is asserted that no 7 cells-DP exists, while in this other document (here) discussing also deadly patterns, a 7-cells example similar to the above is displayed. I am lost...

Let me make it perfectly clear that I am not an expert on DPs or anything else.
Does the interchangeability shown in the grids mean that it IS a DP?

The pattern is deadly.
Code: Select all
. . 134 |  . 14 . | . 34 .
. .  34 |  .  . . | . 34 .
. .  14 |  . 14 . | . .  .

It is a combination of 2 unique rectangles. To avoid the 14 UR, the 3 digit cell must be 3, to avoid the 34 UR it must be 1 - but it can't be both.

Have a look at Myth's thread Forming MUGs from BUG-Lite composites from 2006. It also shows, that it is often tricky to show, that a pattern is deadly - or not.
