::: comment :::

I have two quite independent programs for producing x-sudoku puzzles. This pattern appears to have the property that to produce an x-sudoku based on it is exceptionally difficult. But here's an example

Code: Select all: . . . . . 1 . . 6 . 7 . . . . . 5 . . . 6 9 3 . 2 . . . . 4 . . 9 8 . . . . 9 . 8 . . . . 3 . . 4 . . . . . . . 1 7 . . 3 . . . 3 . . . . . 4 . 7 . . . . . . . 9 x-sudoku
