Post subject: | Tarek's Killer Jonin |
Hi everybody, I am in the long process of developing a killer solver/generator ... In my experiments, the following puzzle came out. It is very difficult as confirmed by some independent computer solvers. I thought that it would be a good idea to post here for future reference. No need to distract youselves from the good solvable puzzles posted here which would be my ultimate generating target Tarek's Killer Jonin 3x3::k:5377:5377:1282:1282:4099:4099:8964:8964:8964:5377:5377:4357:5894:3335:4099:2568:8964:8964:2825:4357:4357:5894:3335:4362:2568:2568:8964:2825:5894:5894:5894:5899:4362:4362:2572:2572:4109:1806:1806:5899:5899:5899:2831:2831:2572:4109:4109:5648:5648:5899:5649:5649:5649:2322:7187:4372:4372:5648:3349:5649:3606:3606:2322:7187:7187:4372:3863:3349:5649:3606:6168:6168:7187:7187:7187:3863:3863:1561:1561:6168:6168: L<5<G<Z<<^^HND^A^^B>^^^H^<^^>>^N^<A<G7<>^<B<^^<M<^M<<9SH<^D^E<^^<^F^^^O<^^<^<6<^^ Code: L<5<G<Z<< ^^HND^A^^ B>^^^H^<^ ^>>^N^<A< G7<>^<B<^ ^<M<^M<<9 SH<^D^E<^ ^<^F^^^O< ^^<^<6<^^ SSS=2.86 **** Uses Extended Trial and Error Steps **** Solution: & here are some similar nasty versions of the same pattern: V2: 3x3::k:3585:3585:2050:2050:4611:4611:6148:6148:6148:3585:3585:5381:6918:1543:4611:5384:6148:6148:3081:5381:5381:6918:1543:3594:5384:5384:6148:3081:6918:6918:6918:6923:3594:3594:2828:2828:4877:2830:2830:6923:6923:6923:2319:2319:2828:4877:4877:2576:2576:6923:6417:6417:6417:3858:8211:3348:3348:2576:2325:6417:4118:4118:3858:8211:8211:3348:4119:2325:6417:4118:4632:4632:8211:8211:8211:4119:4119:2329:2329:4632:4632: SSS=2.56 **** Uses Extended Trial and Error Steps **** V3: 3x3::k:5377:5377:3586:3586:3587:3587:8708:8708:8708:5377:5377:3589:5382:1799:3587:2824:8708:8708:2569:3589:3589:5382:1799:4618:2824:2824:8708:2569:5382:5382:5382:7947:4618:4618:3596:3596:2061:3342:3342:7947:7947:7947:1807:1807:3596:2061:2061:4112:4112:7947:6417:6417:6417:2322:7955:3604:3604:4112:2581:6417:3862:3862:2322:7955:7955:3604:4375:2581:6417:3862:4888:4888:7955:7955:7955:4375:4375:3097:3097:4888:4888: SSS=2.68 **** Uses Extended Trial and Error Steps **** V4: 3x3::k:5377:5377:2818:2818:3075:3075:7172:7172:7172:5377:5377:4101:4614:2823:3075:4360:7172:7172:2313:4101:4101:4614:2823:4106:4360:4360:7172:2313:4614:4614:4614:6667:4106:4106:4620:4620:4877:2830:2830:6667:6667:6667:3087:3087:4620:4877:4877:2832:2832:6667:5649:5649:5649:3346:6931:4628:4628:2832:2069:5649:5142:5142:3346:6931:6931:4628:4887:2069:5649:5142:3608:3608:6931:6931:6931:4887:4887:2073:2073:3608:3608: SSS=3.21 **** Uses Extended Trial and Error Steps **** tarek [Edit: Solution in hidden box, SSS added] |

Just as a word of warning: All these Killers have a SudokuSolver score above 4.8 and need T&E! |

Hi Afmob, I guess I should have chosen my words more carfully (Very difficult is a relative term). The above puzzles will force most computer solvers to go into T&E land. I've edited the 1st post to include SSS for them. Since I've been using SSS for screening some other puzzle, I decided to post an UNSOLVABLE list based on their solver-defeating capabilities ... Thses might be considered as part of a hardest killers list suitable only for machine solvers & future technique development. Don't attempt solving these puzzles unless you want to gauge exactly how high is your obstacle. tarek |
