(Published on 18. April 2025, 05:47 by PhysicistFromFunen)
Ruleset:
The puzzle is also available online in the SudokuPad App.
- Normal Sudoku rules apply.
- 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.
- 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: Box 6, in reading order.

sorry, mr. p, you will not be needed today.
the main thing the solver needs to understand is that 1 does not equal 9
