How to beat Str8ts –<br />
Like Sudoku, no single number can<br />
repeat in any row or column. But...<br />
rows and columns are divided by black<br />
squares into compartments. These<br />
need to be filled in with numbers that<br />
complete a ‘straight’. A straight is a set<br />
of numbers with no gaps but can be in<br />
any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black<br />
cells remove that number as an option<br />
in that row and column, and are not part<br />
of any straight. Glance at the solution to<br />
see how ‘straights’ are formed.<br />
