Rank Up 20.jv - Mod 3
(Published yesterday, 14:58 by vitaminz)
ThePedallingPianist requested some help extending his Full Rank series and I was all too happy to oblige. Leave a comment if you enjoyed it!
RULES:
Sudoku: Within the main grid (inside the thick border), fill every cell with a digit from 1-5 such that digits do not repeat in a row or column.
Full Rank: A value in an external cell represents the rank of the number formed by reading the digits in that row or column from that direction, where (1) is the lowest such row or column and (20) is the highest.
Mod 3 lines: Any 3 adjacent cells along a line must contain a complete set of residues modulo 3 (there will be a residue 0, 1, and 2, with residue defined as the remainder of the cell value after dividing by 3).
N.B. If two ranks are tied, the value in both external cells is the lower of the two ranks being shared. For example, if the lowest four ranks are "12453", "13524", "13524" and "15432", the values in the relevant external cells would be (1), (2), (2) and (4) respectively.

Solution code: The rank of row 4 (left to right) followed by the digits in row 4. Example: 2054321

Every due respect to the creator and his relations, yet this is my favourite Full Rank puzzle by far. It works oh so well.
