March Pentomino Month (4) - PenTotal

(Published on 28. March 2014, 12:00 by Richard)

Place the 12 pentominos in the grid, so that they don't touch each other, not even diagonally. The pentominos may be rotated and/or mirrored. The numbers in the grid tell how many cells of the row and the column that the number is in are part of a pentomino. Pentominos may not be placed on cells with numbers.

Solve online in Penpa+ (thx Nick Smirnov!)

Puzzle:

Pentominos:

Solution code: Row 3, followed by row 10. For every cell the letter of the pentomino and '-' for an empty cell.

Uploaded a new image for the example. The wrong '5' R7C8 was based on an old example puzzle. I hope the instructions were clear, also with this minor error.
Thanks Arvid for notification!

Sehr schöne Pentominovariante. :))
Den Einstieg fand ich persönlich nicht so leicht, deshalb habe ich mal 3 Sterne vergeben. Wenn man ihn einmal hat, geht es zügig durch.

Dear puzzlers,

There is a slight error in the example... please note the most left of the three "5"-digits must be a 4...

(Richard is not able to change it this afternoon, he will upload a new image as soon as possible. I just sent him an email about this)
