24 Ways to survive a Dutch Advent (6): Rank Sudoku

(Published on 6. December 2012, 00:00 by Richard)

Eisbär and I have created an advent sudoku calendar with 24 sudoku variants that have not appeared in the portal yet (as far as we know). Today’s variant is a...

Rank sudoku
Place the digits from 1 to 9 in every row, column and 3x3-block.
A digit ‘X’ in a circle means that the digit in the cell is the X-th smallest number in the corresponding cage. Digits cannot repeat within a cage.

Inspiration for this puzzle comes from August LMI sudoku test.

Solution code: Row 5, followed by column 1.

I recognised it immediately when I tested it... but due to a writing error by myself it took quite some time to solve it correctly :-D

This puzzle is easily solved if you recognise an elegant, interesting solving technique that I am very fond of. I have described this technique for this puzzle in a hidden comment, so you can learn from it if you didn't recognise it yourself. :-)
