not that he can solve it, but that he articulates the process, seemingly at full speed and totally relaxed. Yes! Bet he would ace whiteboard interviews too. It's really impressive to me how clearly he articulates what is going on in his head while solving. There are also tricks one can learn for eg dominos. Yes, that’s something I tried thinking about but computing the intersection of two or more quite large regions turns out to be harder than using the symmetry to only look at one region. Putting a 3 here or here (where it must go) both block this other place, so we know this other place is blocked either way.

> (if I put a 3 here then it reaches here and here by knight’s move therefore it can’t go here)Ī possibly-simpler way to look at it is the inverse. That said It is still impressive and I think practice is not sufficient to explain how fast he is at it. The main trick I missed is the forking one (if I put a 3 here then it reaches here and here by knight’s move therefore it can’t go here).

Eg other sudoku-style puzzles also have knight move rules. I though that too at first but actually they seem well practiced too. And the way he develops/explains those algorithms It is amazing how he fast can develop new "algorithms" and the explanation for the for new rules he encounters. Yeah, the guy is a genius at solving sudokus and makes it look easy. The agility with which he picks up new rules and starts working with them is sign of a beautiful mind. The lightning speed of his observing standard rules across the board is impressive but expected after months of practice.

picture memorizing the areas where there is nothing and first putting in something in here and then starting to work on the areas you are supposed to work on (has some cells revealed) This way i 'cheated' here to bring down mistakes to lowest possible or even zero.You can try one of the most extraordinary puzzles we've ever seen by Mitchell Lee here: Got through this world by memorizing the most annoying parts and then solving the rest. Mistakes just keep coming as now it's random territory. i do recoqnize that you have to complete 'other' parts of the puzzle to get a indication of what to take next - for instance those levels with a number next to a row telling how many blue ones you can find was no brainers in that you had to solve it in parts to get indicators elsewhere on what to do next.īut these levels also introduced many puzzles where you have already solved every sub-part of the puzzle and there was nothing else left than to guess your way. World 3 is where i think the guessing got out of hand and fun went down with it. Solved the first ones in this world and these ones are atleast not yet that bad. Opened world 4 and now i have encountered the blue cells with numbers - okay they tell me the distance to blue cells hidden within range of 2. you got only question marks or cells with a number and your only options are to guess. How do you guys minimize guessing when there simply is no logical route to proceed? i.e.
