Normal sudoku rules apply. Boxes are numbered as normal. Normal Kropki and X sums.
If two digits are connected by a black dot, one is double the other.
Two digits connected by an X sum to 10.
-You must be able to draw a single loop in the grid that moves orthogonally, does not cross itself, and does not branch. This loop must visit every 3x3 box.
-The box borders divide the loop into segments. On the loop adjacent digits must, when the smaller is divided by the larger, have a strictly greater ratio than the ratio for that segment.
-That ratio is determined by the box numbers the ends of the segment go through. Again, divide the smaller box number by the bigger box number. You will get two ratios, the ratio for the segment is the bigger of the two. Digits separated by box borders follow the ratio from that border.
-Two parts of the loop are given and the ends in box 5 must connect without leaving box 5. As an example, the ratio for this segment is 5/6 since it goes between boxes 5
-The loop cannot enter cells connected by a kropki dot nor an X sum.
Lösungscode: Cells not on the loop in column 3
