Sudoku in range(10)
(Published on 30. August 2025, 20:13 by Schmupiter)
XV: Digits in cells separated by a V sum to 5. Digits in cells separated by an X sum to 10. Not all possible X and V are given. (Note that 0 and 5 also add to 5.)
Kropki lines: Adjacent digits on a turquoise line are consecutive or one is twice the other. Example for possible strings of digits along a Kropki line: 3-6-7-8-4, 0-0-1-2-4.
Solution code: The number of digits on all Kropki lines combined written as a look-and-say clue (e.i. reading the clue out loud, tells you how many of each digits are on all the Kropki lines combined). Example: If there are eight 0s, seven 1s, six 3s and no other digits, then the solution would be 80710263040506070809. Note: Go through all the digits 0 to 9 in order (also if their number is 0) as in the example.

I hope you are not too scared by the solution code... The code really looks more complicated than it actually is. If you understand look-and-say clues and have solved the puzzle, then it is really simple to write down.
