Marty, I believe that your first step is a one-stepper when viewed differently.........
(5=9)r4c3-(9=1)r5c3-(1=26)r45c6-(6=4)r7c6-(4=8)r7c7-aur(49)r56c47[(8)r5c7=(5)r6c4]; r6c3<>5

My solver's solution reduces to two steps:
Code: | +--------------------------------------------------------------+
| 4 9 3 | 2 *18 5 | 6 7 *18 |
| 67 67 2 | 89 *18+49 14 | 3 5 *18 |
| 5 1 8 | 6 7 3 | 2 9 4 |
|--------------------+--------------------+--------------------|
| 68 246 59 | 7 59 26 | 1 468 3 |
| 678 2467 19 | 49 3 126 | 489 468 5 |
| 3 46 159 | 459 16 8 | 49 2 7 |
|--------------------+--------------------+--------------------|
| 2 5 7 | 3 468 46 | 48 1 9 |
| 1 3 6 | 58 458 9 | 7 48 2 |
| 9 8 4 | 1 2 7 | 5 3 6 |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
# 46 eliminations remain
r12c59 <18> UR Type 1.2224 <> 18 r2c5
XY-Chain: (1=4)r2c6 - (4=9)r2c5 - (9=5)r4c5 - (5=9)r4c3 - (9=1)r5c3 => r5c6<>1
|
Which can be treated as a single-stepper:
Code: |
(1=4)r2c6 - (4=UR=9)r2c5 - (9=5)r4c5 - (5=9)r4c3 - (9=1)r5c3 => r5c6<>1
|
This is a perspective on a UR Type 1 that I hadn't considered previously. |

Ted, I am more than capable of turning a one-stepper into a four-stepper; I've done it many times. However, I don't understand Eureka so I don't know what your one-stepper is. |

Danny, that is very cool . It is something I definitely have not thought about before although I once used a Type 2 pattern to link.

Here's a simple als one stepper..
Code: | (8=5)r8c4 - ant(5=469)r6c247 - (6)r6c5=r7c5 ; r7c5<>8 |
