About Tango #695
- Tango #695 starts with 6 of 36 squares filled: 2 suns and 4 moons.
- It has 4 equals signs and 2 cross signs between neighboring squares.
- It has 6 pre-filled squares, the same as the average of 6.0 across the previous 7 puzzles.
- This opening fills 4 squares by pure deduction from the 6 pre-filled symbols and the signs between squares, with no guessing.
- R2C2 and R4C2 are both moons with only R3C2 between them in column 2, so another moon there would make three in a column; R3C2 must be a sun.
- The equals sign between R5C2 and R6C2 means they share a symbol, and with a moon on R4C2 right beside them in column 2, a pair of moons would make three in a column, so R5C2 and R6C2 must both be suns.
- The equals sign between R6C2 and R6C3 says the two squares must match, and R6C2 was already shown to be a sun, so R6C3 must be a sun too.
