X-Sums: 37

Another Schrödinger cells sudoku. Had a lot of fun setting this
- Normal Sudoku rules do NOT apply.
- Every row, column, and box contains the digits 0-9 exactly once.
- Every row, column, and box contains exactly one so-called Schrödinger cell, which contains two digits at the same time. Both of these digits may not repeat elsewhere in their row, column, or box.
- X-sum clues outside the grid give the sum of the first X cells in their respective row or column, where X is the value of the nearest cell in that row or column.
- The value of a Schrödinger cell is the sum of the digits it contains for the purposes of all X-sum clues.

Solution code: The digits in the Schrödinger cells from the first row to the last, with the lower of the two digits in each row entered first.

It is worth noted that given digits cannot be S-cells, otherwise multiple solutions exist.

I agree with henry. 2½ stars difficulty.

Very smooth solve, only 2½ stars difficulty for me.
I'm glad you liked it! You must be getting used to way I set puzzles haha.

Can an X-cell be an S-cell? E. g. a (2,3) indicating a sum of 5 cells?
Yeah it can :)
