About Tango #662
- Tango #662 starts with 8 of 36 squares filled: 6 suns and 2 moons.
- It has 2 equals signs and 0 cross signs between neighboring squares.
- It has 8 pre-filled squares, fewer than the average of 8.3 across the previous 7 puzzles.
- This opening fills 4 squares by pure deduction from the 8 pre-filled symbols, with no guessing.
- R1C3 and R1C4 are neighboring suns in row 1, and a third sun beside them would make three in a row, so R1C2 and R1C5 on both ends must be moons.
- R1C5 and R2C5 are neighboring moons in column 5, and a third moon beside them would make three in a column, so R3C5 next to them must be a sun.
- R3C5 and R5C5 are both suns with only R4C5 between them in column 5, so another sun there would make three in a column; R4C5 must be a moon.
