LM 2026 Leftover: Japanische Koralle 1-8
(Published on 29. June 2026, 20:26 by ibag)
Blacken some cells and fill the remaining cells with digits 1-8, so that no digit repeats in any row or column.
Outside hints give the sums of connected digits (without blackened cell between) in the corresponding row or coloumn. Some of the hints are replaced by question marks, ? for a one digit number, ?? for a two digit number. In every row or coloumn either all hints are given or none.
The hints are not necessarily given in the right order, but are sortet by their size. This holds espacially also for hints replaced by question marks.
The blackened cells built a coral.E.g. they are connected orthogonally, don't contain 2x2-areas, and the cells with digits are orthogonally connected to the boundary.
Solution code: Row 8 followed by column 8, S for blackened cells.

smooth swimthrough - once I realised only digits up to 8 were required :-).
Thanks
