Preamble

Let me know what you thought of it in the comments!

A colourblind friendly grid has also been provided with each line labelled ('G' for green, 'P' for purple and 'Pa' for parity.)

The title is in Latin and roughly translates to 'Divisors of doubt'

A solution guide can be found here (containing spoilers): Solution Guide

Happy solving!

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Digits along a green or purple ’divisor’ line must satisfy the following: ’The line is read from one end. Each digit placed must wholly divide the sum of all the previous digits on the line.’ (For example, 3-1-4 is valid as 1 divides 3 and 4 divides 3+1, but 3-1-8 is invalid, as 8 does not divide 3+1)

Digits cannot repeat on green lines, but may repeat on purple lines, if allowed by other rules.

Adjacent digits on a red ’parity’ line must alternate in parity (odd/even).

Cells separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio, cells separated by a white dot are consecutive. Not all such dots are given.
