Hi everyone,
I also in two steps

Paolo,
What are you trying to tell us with the two AICs? Do they get performed consecutively? The first one says r3c3<>8 and the second one, r1c3<>8. What does it all mean? What is your solution to the puzzle? |

Hi Marty R.
The logic of two AIC is the same.
When 8 in r8c3 is made in turn true and false the 8 in R1C3 and R3C3 is
always false, there is a contradiction, so 8 in R1C3 and R3C3 can be removed.
Ciao a tutti

Sorry to be such a pest with all these questions. If after the X-Wing, AIC #2 is sufficient, what is the purpose of #1 and why show it? What is the reader to think?
Quote: | When 8 in r8c3 is made in turn true and false the 8 in R1C3 and R3C3 is

I do not understand anything about this sentence. Do you know how to write Eureka notation? That can answer a lot of questions and show exactly what is being done. |

Dear Marty
The first puzzle is in my previous post is the initial problem that you put .
The second puzzle represents the situation after the x-wing of the 2 and
other insertions and eliminations with basic strategies, including the 2 in first line (R1C5).
The third puzzle is simply obtained by eliminating the 8 in R1C3 which easily leads to the solution.
The fourth is the solution.

It is simply a demonstration of the logical process of the AIC chain leading to the elimination of the 8 in R1C3 and R3C3.
In fact, the 8 in R8C3 "sees" both 8 in R1C3 and R3C3. So when R8C3 = 8 is true the other 8 are false (weak inference).
The second is the strong inference of the AIC chain
Quote: | AIC R8C3≠8=>R9C1=8=>R4C1≠8=>R4C1=6=>R4C3≠6=>R3C3=6=>R3C3≠8=>-8 R3C3
AIC R8C3≠8=>R9C1=8=>R4C1≠8=>R4C1=6=>R4C3≠6=>R3C3=6=>R3C3≠3=>R1C3=3=>R1C3≠8=>-8 R1C3
|
Which shows that when R8C3 is false even 8 in R1C3 and R3C3 are false.Then 8 in R1C3 and R3C3 can be eliminated because either that 8 in R8C3 is true or false the 8 in R1C3 and r3C3 are always false (contradiction).
I hope I have been clear, even though my English is not very correct.

I hope that this is my final post in this thread.

Is this considered two branches of one chain?

You talk about r8c3 being true or false but I don't see any chain with r8c3=8 being the opening premise.
Yes, r1c3 and r3c3<>8 when r8c3 is either true or false. I don't understand where the contradiction is. it looks to me like a common outcome of a forcing chain.
Is that the solution, that both r1r3c3 and r3c3 are false? Does the elimination of those two 8s finish the puzzle? |

Quote: | Is this considered two branches of one chain? |
No, there are two independent AICs that share the initial cell and the first part to cell R3C3 = 6. One eliminates 8 in R1C3 and the other eliminates 8 in R3C3. |

The premise is implicit in the fact that 8 in R3C8 "sees" the cells R1C3 and R3C3. This means that there is a weak inference between them.
In each AIC, the head and tail of the chain must "see" the cells where the elimination occurs. |

With contradiction I mean an impossible situation. Cell R1C3 and R3C3 cell can never contain 8 as a value, because it is impossible that in cell R8C3 the 8 is both true and false at the same time (premise of logical reasoning). |

As I said in a previous post, to reach the solution is enough to eliminate 8 in R1C3.The second elimination is supposed to be easily accessed by the basic technique
