** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
After some astonishing sudokus in recent days, Simon's brain is rendered palindrome-blind by this gorgeous puzzle from CaptZebraCakes. It's a simple idea: 10-lines and palindromes but the logic feels remarkable fresh (and not easy to this solver at least!).
Play the puzzle at the link below:
sudokupad.app/4fxnvktjvn
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits along a grey palindrome line must read the same forwards and backwards. Each orange 10-line consists of contiguous groups of cells, each of which sums to 10. These groups of cells cannot overlap; every cell is part of exactly one group. Digits may repeat on a 10-line. Cells separated by a white dot contain consecutive digits. Not all dots are given.

Thank you Simon and the CTC team for featuring this puzzle! To settle the debate, I chose 10:01 AM simply because I like mornings better than evenings. 10:01 PM is past my bedtime.

32:44 The way I noticed that r3c7 and r4c7 should add up to 10 is by thinking about them combined with the domino above it and the 235 triple at the bottom. 7 cells are a minimum of 28. So r3c7 and r4c7 are at least 8. But the other two cells on the line can't add to 2, and there's no way to leave one cell alone

54:08 once again, here I am talking to my screen telling Simon to consider the 78 pair in box 7 - after watching Simon do all sorts of logic which I can only understand halfway, let alone ever reproduce…

@davidholt4327 Месяц назад

I was convinced this was going to be a colouring puzzle and Simon normally loves colouring so I was pretty surprised when he started uncolouring cells!

@FrancisFjordCupola 7 месяцев назад

I love how Simon around 51:00 starts going "I am close to solving this". I went about a slightly different route; using sudoku on the top-right palindrome in combination with sudoku to figure out where 235-blocks can go. When Simon put the pen-ultimate right domino on the long ten-line that went in the middle in and filled it with either 19- or 46-pairs, he says "I have this feeling it wants to be a 19-pair." While at that point I'd already found the 9 that put an end to that option. Overal took me far more time than Simon to solve, though. Lovely puzzle.

@ericpraline1302 7 месяцев назад

Very nice, thanks, particularly the start.

@emilywilliams3237 7 месяцев назад

The 10-line concept is very interesting. I think the first one I saw you solve was by Zetamath, and I found it fascinating. This was equally fascinating - I loved your explanations and especially the demonstration of how to use color to help move the logic forward. Thanks, Simon, as always, for the video today and for all that CtC puts out all the time! Such a pleasure.

@arcanelizard4646 7 месяцев назад

101:54 for me this time. It was absolutely brain bending, but I got through it completely on my own, including finding my mistaken assumption that led to me believing I had incorrectly sized groups in box 1 when I was actually on the right track the whole time, aside from missing one possibility for one digit. I’m really proud of myself for being able to power through this one, and once again I am in awe of the minds of people who can set these complex beasts of puzzles. CaptZebraCakes, take a bow, it is well deserved for the incredible logic you showcased in this puzzle

@stevieinselby 7 месяцев назад

Well I felt like a right numpty after that ... 35 minutes down, and I had 77 cells filled in, and a 4-6 deadly pattern in cols 1 and 2 (which I had seen coming, but decided to press on anyway). I guessed one orientation, and it worked! Tick ☑. I tried the other way, just to see. Nope, doesn't like it. I stared at the grid for a full minute and a half before I realised what I had missed 🙄 But now I've seen the video length, I'm thinking I might not be _that_ much of a numpty after all!

@frankjiang1857 7 месяцев назад

Finished in 52:27. Had to restart to see if I was doing something wrong in box 5, but I realized that I had to have a pair in the bottom part of the 10-line since a 4 set in the box doesn't work and the 3 doesn't work with the middle square. Fun puzzle!

@michaeldavidson6428 7 месяцев назад

At 41:11 ... ignoring the uniqueness explanation... you can rule 9 out of r7c8 because the remaining 4-6 pair in box 9 will break r5c9... so there is a 9 in column 8 in box 6 which can't go in r4c8 because it's on the palindrome and will clash with the 9 in row 3... so r6c8 is a 9

@johnh2052 7 месяцев назад

At 55:55, Simon determined the 10-pair in box 5 was 46. I bet I was not the only one immediately begging him to do sudoku on column 6, which included another 46, and a 469 that could be resolved to 9. And, this 9 would resolve the white dot in box 9, opening up everything! But, he just wouldn't. :)

@waldolala2 7 месяцев назад

Well, he proved here that that white dot was not needed

@chrispowell1455 7 месяцев назад

I'm helping 4 6 at the video - it starts to resolve the colours. Simon starts contemplating odds and evens and then finds the 7 in box 9 in the most convoluted way!!!

@headoftss 7 месяцев назад

Yes, I saw that too and how it would roll on to the white dot in box 9 and begin disambiguating colours. It’s natural for us less gifted solvers to see what effect our recently added digits have on their row, column and box. Not so Simon, though! Oh no, he goes galloping off in an entirely unexpected (to me) direction.

@Raven-Creations 7 месяцев назад

Whilst I was solving, I thought "Simon's going to struggle with this". There was so much sudoku, with cells being much more restricted than was obvious, giving doubles, triples, and quads everywhere. For instance, @ 54:02, R3C8 is restricted to being 235, which makes R2C5=R3C8=purple 235, which gives a 235 triple in C5. Similarly, R4C8 is restricted to 2359, but it can't be 9 because its mirror sees a 9. Therefore R4C8 is also 235 and must be yellow, because its mirror is R3C4 which sees the other two colours. The cells in C8 in box 3 can only be 1235, which gives a 1235 quad at the top of the column, and makes R6C8 469, but since there's already a 46 pair in the box, it's 9. The other empty cells in the box are 235, which means 2 cannot go on the white dot in box 4. The 3 in the corner celebration said "deet deet doot" in the version linked, not the usual party popper.

@Poet13xRatedRKO 7 месяцев назад

Solved in 64:32. For the first half hour I saw nothing except some colors and then I realised boxes 7 and 9 lead to the break-in.

@thespanishinquisition4078 7 месяцев назад

Funny, I saw box 7 and immediately was like "this has to be the break in", then saw box 9 and figured it had to be a clue... Then spent the rest of the first half hour making calculations first in my head and then in an excel sheet trying to figure out what the hell was the clue supposed to be. Didn't keep the time noted but I'm sure it was well over an hour so you beat me anyway but I just find it funny we had mirrored issues starting in.

@WimmekeVL 7 месяцев назад

I wanted to put 'x' between the dominoes that add up to 10, which the pen tool actually can kind of do when they are orthogonally connected, but not when they are diagonally connected. But then I don't remember seeing such a clue anywhere else either. The V's and X's of any previous puzzle I've seen were always orthogonally connected. So even if the author of the solving tool would allow us to add our own V's and X'es between cells, it would not have helped here. So don't consider this a feature request just yet. I wonder if anyone else wished they could do something similar...

Yes, at 33 min there is an elegant way. There is 1 low digit in the top two cells. 3 low digits in the bottom three cells. How can you then put 2 low digits in those cells you are looking at? Have 6 low digits in a column?

@RichSmith77 7 месяцев назад

As Simon points out though, the line could have had a repeated 1, and still been 1-6-1-2. That wouldn't have needed six low digits in c7.

@iabervon 7 месяцев назад

"Famous last words" is a bit ironic when commentating a solve. If it turns out that you're nowhere near done, those words will be very much not last. One secret to ten lines is that you can draw green one cell along them from each end and each section break, because you can't have a one-cell sequence. That's useful because you sometimes see that you've drawn a three-cell line next to a two-cell line and combining them is impossible, where it's not obvious from the one middle connection.

Occasionally two cell lines can join to three cell lines, if the line allows repeated digits.

How large is the adding-to-ten group that r1c7 is part of? Obviously bigger than one cell, because it can't contain a 10. Can it be 3 or more cells in size? Well, that would mean that the top three cells of column 7 add up to no more than 10. But he's already shown that the bottom three cells of column 7 are part of a single group, and therefore add up to no more than 10. So if r1c7's group were three or larger, then you'd have six cells in column 7 that add up to no more than 20. But six different sudoku digits must add to at least 21, so r1c7's group is not three cells or larger.

It throws me every time Simon describes as purple what I can only see as pink. Nothing wrong with that, just weird is all.
