Hot Core [odd/even thermometers]

(Published on 20. March 2025, 20:24 by PhysicistFromFunen)

I really hope you enjoy this return of odd/even thermometers! If you are in need of any hints, Mark does a fantastic job at explaining how such thermos may interact on the CTC channel here.

Ruleset:
  1. Normal Sudoku rules apply.
  2. Turquoise (orange) thermometers restrict only even (odd) digits. That is, on a turquoise thermometer, the even digits strictly increase from the bulb end, and likewise for odd digits on an orange thermometer. Digits of the unrestricted parity can go anywhere and in any order on a thermometer.
  3. Thermometers are strictly dominated by digits of the restricted parity. E.g. a 6 cell orange thermometer must have at least 4 odd digits.


The puzzle is also available online in the SudokuPad App.


Solution code: Row 7, from left to right.
