** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
Marty Sears returns tonight with another puzzle showcasing his sudoku setting genius. This isn't too hard to solve but every single deduction will give you a little shot of joy. It's called Flurry and, however long it takes you to solve, we can all but guarantee you'll think it was time well spent.
Play the puzzle at the following link:

Ah what a lovely surprise. I really like that you feature some easier puzzles sometimes too. It was originally going to be a much harder puzzle... the plan was to do a deconstruction circles puzzle called 'Too Many Circles', where the idea was to find the 9 boxes in an 11x11 grid containing a ridiculous number of circles, in such a way that the number of boxed circles was kept down to 45, which would only just be possible. It's one of those ideas that sounds good in my head, and I basically created it and it worked, but finding those boxes at the beginning relied too much on guesswork and case testing for my liking. I designed it so that there was only one arrangement that let you have no more than 45 circles in boxes, but even though I knew that, it would be very difficult to prove comfortably... even if you were correct about the placement of the boxes, it was hard to ever feel 100% sure about it; I think the solver would always be wondering if there was another arrangement somewhere that they'd missed, which wouldn't make for a very nice feeling as you proceed. This mini bitesize version keeps all the nice bits from it but in a smoother, more streamlined way that I'm much happier with. A good example that harder doesn't always necessarily equal more fun. Thanks so much for another feature, and indeed congratulations yourself for your own brilliant feature on Numberphile! Was so fun seeing you on there, and I do hope there will be many more. The world of sudoku is such a fun way to explain lots of beautiful mathematical concepts, and the 'Difference of Squares' puzzle was a perfect first choice. Looking forward to seeing Mark's video too ❤ Happy New Year!

It's fascinating how Simon's mind works, immediately seeing the box orientation logic that rolls out of needing every digit but 1 in the circles before the imo much simpler result that the one circled digit in column 3 must be an 8 and the one uncircled in column 6 must be a 1...

Your go-to move of *which* even/odd digit goes on a consecutive link is one of the biggest skill bumps in my sudoku solving toolkit since watching the channel, even though I still struggle to remember to try it. Other skill level ups include: -working out which tips & constraints each funky rule require (here, count the circles), & -when stuck, make sure I’ve used all the given rules & clues which may seem obvious but I didn’t codify into useable tasks I could call upon when stuck before watching this channel. (Sympathies to Mark re: the knight proximity constraint) Love your enthusiasm over finding the solve path too. Before watching your channel I tended to be more annoyed by some tricks than pleased with them & seeing them as clever instead of irritating makes solving more fun.

ALL HAIL THE SECRET Sorry to brash in... but if the secret tells us all digits are circled besides the 1s - as noted early in the video - and it is deduced there are eight circled 8s, seven circled 7s, six circled 6s etc down to two circled 2s... this helps hugely for delineating the eight 2x4 boxes: as each box follows sudoku 1-8 rules, there would necessarily be one 2x4 box containing a single circle (an 8), another box with two circles (a 7 and an 8), then a box with three circles (6, 7, 8) and so on, down to the two last boxes with all digits circled besides the 1s... no? Simon seems to solves the whole thing without noticing this implication that seems rather natural. Love this channel - new here - elegant deductions and... so British!! (Please let me know if deduction is wrong).
@martysears
@martysears 6 месяцев назад
It turns out that is the formation in this puzzle, but it wouldn't necessarily have to be the case. You could, for example, remove the circle from the orange 5 and instead circle the yellow 5. Then, you still have the correct number of 5s in circles, but now you have two boxes with two circles (grey and yellow) and two boxes with 4 circles (red and orange), and no boxes with exactly one circle or exactly 5 circles. However, having the formation the way it is, (numbers of circles = 7,7,6,5,4,3,2,1), it does indeed help a lot with solving. And indeed that is why I arranged them like that, to help create a smooth solve path
@tomgalli1188
@tomgalli1188 6 месяцев назад
OMG! I did it! This puzzle has set my personal high number of restarts. I actually lost count, but I THINK I succeed on my 8th attempt. I realized that I had a fallacy in my logic, using the circles as limiters on a row & column bases. i.e., if there were 4 circles on a row, they were 5,6,7,8. It was often true, but it didn't have to be true, and lead me into breaking the puzzle in late stages over and over again. But I just intuitively felt like this was within my capabilities, albeit marginally. Once I finally spotted my fallacy, I was able to get through! 121:13 was my final timel no idea what the cumulative time would be. But I rally do feel good, having ultimately triumphed.

I started out with the same configuration as Simon but out of pure luck, I figured out the bottom right had to be flat and then immediately put the other 2 straight up. But somewhere half through my puzzle I spotted a white dot that couldn't work, so I rotated the 2 center boxes to 'fix' that. It was a word that I won't put on youtube after that, so I just gave up. As usual. No 3 in the corner and no solve from me either. But still fun to watch Simon tackle it of course.

@G4M1L
@G4M1L 6 месяцев назад
I find it plausible that after eliminating the 2 7-cicrled boxes the rest have all a different number, but I don't see immediately why it really has to be that way. Why couldn't there be a distribution of circles like 7,7,6,4,4,3,3,1 for instance?
@shadeblackwolf1508
@shadeblackwolf1508 6 месяцев назад
@@G4M1L No box is allowed 2 of the same number. No more than 2 boxes can have 7 numbers cuase you run out of 2s, adn no box can hold more than 7 becuase you dun out of different digits. You can have no more than 3 boxes with a total of circles greater than 6 because you run out of 3s, and need each to have a different fill. Then you can't have more than 4 boxes with 5 circles cause you run out of the digit 4. This recurses to give a maximum for each size that tallies 2x7+1x6+1x5 and so on, which totals 35. That also happens to be the number of circles. Therefore to be able to distribute all circles, you have to distribute these maxima.

Solving this myself I'm reminded how hard it can be to identify where you mess up along a solve path. I ended up mis-clicking fairly early in the puzzle (after corner marking 2 in R1C7 and R2c7, R1C7 became a full-size 2. Simple mistake, hit the 2 key again after I'd meant to. I hadn't even worked out all the boxes at that point. I didn't discover I had a problem until the last 10 digits to go into the puzzle. I had all the boxes right, I had ALMOST all of the digits right, but the white dots had lead to a slight change in some placement, eventually forcing a 7 into R2C8. I suppose for a consolation I got an undeserved 3 in R1C1.

16:49 Once you have the regions, the digits that must fill the circled and uncircled cells of each region are easy. The region with one uncircled cell contains the 1, region with two uncircled cells contain 1 & 2, region with three contain 1, 2 & 3, and so on up to the region with 7 uncircled cells contains all digits 1 through 7 with only 8 circled. Similarly the converse for the circled cells in each region.

Isn't it true with any puzzle that is an 8x8 with 35 circles subject to the same rules requires one box with one circle, one with two, one with three, etc, and two boxes with seven circles, and that the box with one circle must have 8 in that circle, the box with two circles must have 7 and 8, the box with three circles must have 6, 7 and 8, and so on until you get to the two boxes whose encircled digits must be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8? That was the revelation I was expecting to hear at some stage in this puzzle, but it's possible that my logic is flawed.
@martysears

I think thats not necessarily the case. If you look at the finished grid, imagine if you removed the circle from around the 5 in dark green, and put it instead around the 5 in yellow. The rules would still be the same and the grid would still follow the rules, but there'd be two boxes with two circles, and none with three
