About Tango #655
- Tango #655 starts with 9 of 36 squares filled: 5 suns and 4 moons.
- It has 1 equals sign and 5 cross signs between neighboring squares.
- It has 9 pre-filled squares, more than the average of 6.6 across the previous 5 puzzles.
- This opening fills 3 squares by pure deduction from the 9 pre-filled symbols, with no guessing.
- R2C5 and R3C5 are neighboring suns in column 5, and a third sun beside them would make three in a column, so R4C5 next to them must be a moon.
- R2C1 and R2C3 are both moons with only R2C2 between them in row 2, so another moon there would make three in a row; R2C2 must be a sun.
- R3C1 and R3C3 are both suns with only R3C2 between them in row 3, so another sun there would make three in a row; R3C2 must be a moon.
