About Tango #702
- Tango #702 starts with 8 of 36 squares filled: 4 suns and 4 moons.
- It has 3 equals signs and 1 cross sign between neighboring squares.
- It has 8 pre-filled squares, more than the average of 6.9 across the previous 7 puzzles.
- This opening fills 4 squares by pure deduction from the 8 pre-filled symbols and the signs between squares, with no guessing.
- R3C4 and R5C4 are both suns with only R4C4 between them in column 4, so another sun there would make three in a column; R4C4 must be a moon.
- The cross sign between R4C4 and R4C5 says the two squares must be opposites, and R4C4 was already shown to be a moon, so R4C5 has to be a sun.
- The equals sign between R4C2 and R4C3 means they share a symbol, and with a moon on R4C4 right beside them in row 4, a pair of moons would make three in a row, so R4C2 and R4C3 must both be suns.
