Chaos construction:
-Divide the grid into nine regions, each made of nine orthogonally connected cells, such that each row, column and nine cell region contains the digits 1 to 9 exactly once each.
L sums:
-Clues outside the grid show the sum of the first X digits from that direction, where X is the first of those digits.
-Each sum line makes one 90° turn at some point, making it some form of an "L" shape. Basically: the sum consists of two straight parts(which consists of 1 or more cells) connected by a "bend". The bend needs to be seen by the clue in the clue's row/column.
-Entire sum is situated in one region. The first cell immediately after the completed sum is of different region.
-Given black borders separates cells of different regions

EXAMPLES:
Solution code: Row 5, "-" separating regions. ex: 12-3456-789

Novel twist to the x-sum CC's. Obvious but funky break in. Very nice. Thanks
