About Tango #713
- Tango #713 starts with 8 of 36 squares filled: 4 suns and 4 moons.
- It has 0 equals signs and 4 cross signs between neighboring squares.
- LinkedIn rates it Hard.
- 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, with no guessing.
- R4C2 and R5C2 are neighboring suns in column 2, and a third sun beside them would make three in a column, so R3C2 and R6C2 on both ends must be moons.
- R1C6 and R2C6 are neighboring moons in column 6, and a third moon beside them would make three in a column, so R3C6 next to them must be a sun.
- R6C2 and R6C4 are both moons with only R6C3 between them in row 6, so another moon there would make three in a row; R6C3 must be a sun.
