Next X Sum - Sandwich - X-Sudoku

(Published on 12. May 2020, 21:15 by Rawcoder)

I created this Sudoku a while ago. It solves pretty smoothly and uses a mechanic that is not used very often.


Regeln:
Classic sudoku rules apply. Additionally both main diagonals contain the Digits 1 to 9 exactly once. The dotted cages are killer cages. Digits within these cages sum to the given total.

Red clues outside the grid are sandwich clues, i.e. they the of the digits sandwiched between the 1 and the 9.

Blue clues outside the grid are „next x sum“ clues. They indicate the sum of the next x digits, with x beeing the first digit in the row/column that is adjacent to that clue. The X itself doesn't count towards the sum.
For example: If we have a row with the digits 347982615 than a „next x sum“ clue on the left side of the row would be 20 (X=3, adding up 479), if such a clue would be on the right side it would be 26 (X=5, adding up 16289).

Enjoy solving!

Solution code: Column 5 (top to bottom) followed by row 8 (left to right)
