So are you, as in UR.

There was a potential DP on 25-28-58 in boxes 369. Just looking at the implications of the various candidates that could kill the DP was enough to solve the puzzle.

I don't follow.

To me the fact that one of r5c78 must be 9 ruins the DP.

You may very well be right; I'm not exactly a Sudoku whiz. However, I have no intermediate grid, so I can't comment, and at least for the next few hours, I can't redo it. Maybe I'll try later and learn something.

Happy belated Canada Day. Smile

OK, I redid it. I thought I had an obligation for the evening that it turned out that I didn't.

This is where basics took me and I just don't understand how the 9 in r5c78 breaks up the DP. I'm not saying it doesn't, I'm just saying I don't understand. I'm working on a DP of 58-25-28 in r269c78.

Code:

+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 6    49  49 | 5   2   8   | 1   7    3  |
| 17   17  3  | 6   4   9   | 258 258  28 |
| 8    2   5  | 13  7   13  | 49  49   6  |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 1459 149 2  | 8   15  7   | 6   3    45 |
| 1357 137 17 | 2   6   4   | 589 1589 78 |
| 1457 8   6  | 9   135 135 | 245 1245 27 |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 2    34  8  | 134 135 135 | 7   6    9  |
| 19   6   19 | 7   8   2   | 3   45   45 |
| 347  5   47 | 34  9   6   | 28  28   1  |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+

Well, one of r5c78 must be a 9.

The set of 258 is broken by that.

Yes, that's what you said earlier. What I see is that if r5c8=9, then there is a Type 1 on 28. But if r5c7=9, then I don't see the breakup.

Dan, I seem to have a mental block recently finding W-wings. In this case, I found your first one, but do not see the second w-wing that you posted.

Please help. (And yes, I did start the July4 celebration somewhat early.)

I was on the wrong 258s.

I am not sure that that helps me. Embarassed

I finally found it, Danny's comment below sparked a light for me. Very Happy

I could not find it either. There are so many w-wings I got lost. Embarassed
try a w-wing 17 => r456c1<>1 then an xy_wing 954 =>r6c7<>4 along with the three w-wings to solve it --- I think Shocked

Thanks for keeping me straight--
Have a good 4th! Very Happy

Nice DP Exclamation After initially missing some obvious implications, I managed to finally get [r4c5]=1 from it.

Marty, I got lost/confused looking at the implication of the various candidats that could kill the DP.

Would you please provide some insight.

Thanks......
