Dutch Flat Mates: Periodic Sums (with sujoyku)
(Eingestellt am 12. November 2025, 09:00 Uhr von Sotehr)
Play [Dutch Flat Mates: Periodic Sums] on SudokuPad.
Dutch Flat Mates: Every 5 in the grid must have a 1 directly above it, or a 9 directly below it. It may have both, but it isn't necessary.
Periodic Sums: A clue outside the grid indicates the sum of the first cell seen in its row or column and every Nth cell after, where N is the digit in the first cell. For example if r7c1 is a 3, then the digits in r7c1, r7c4, and r7c7 must sum to 18.
NOTES
Many thanks to sujoyku for setting this with me, and Flinty for allowing me to make my debut in his Dutch Flat Mate series! He has been releasing a flatmate every week since '18 Oct 23!' There is a spreadsheet link for all the previous puzzles in the series, which sometimes has teasers for upcoming constraints and guest setters in the series.
This alternative link offers a limited LMD search for Dutch Flat Mates.
Lösungscode: Column 6, top to bottom.

Very nice! Periodic sums are new to me, so I made probably every mistake possible by not thinking them through properly at first. After I put my thinking hat on, it was an entertaining and approachable solve. Thank you
