Submit your own puzzles here :-)
Submit the puzzles you'd like to appear on the site in this thread. Update: you can now submit your puzzles on this pageThe format in which to specify your puzzle is: - the first line has the dimension (a number between 4 and 9) - subsequent lines specify cages, as follows: <target result>,<operation>,<cells> - <target result> speaks for itself - <operation> can be one of: + - * / % | ^ - <cells> are specified in the coordinates that are used on the site, for example: a1a2 For example, today's 4x4 medium would look like this: 4 3,+,a1b1 9,+,c1b2c2 6,+,d1d2d3 36,*,a2a3b3 12,*,c3b4c4 1,+,a4 4,+,d4 Let me know if anything is unclear.

Patrick The % is for mod operation ... but How do you express the no-op? Just a space?

Also not supported: twins, puzzles from zero, puzzles larger than 9x9, negative numbers (these types will follow in due course). Edit: just in case no user created puzzle is submitted between now and midnight: I've put your "8x8 subtractions only" puzzle as the user puzzle for tomorrow (which will be at http://www.calcudoku.org/user/2014-02-10) Patrick

Re: Submit your own puzzles here :-)
1st! (to solve clm's difficult puzzle) But status only says "(solved 1 time(s) so far)" without adding the coveted "(last by [Danish flag] bram)"

Particularly myself I do not know how to solve it , no, seriously, I have the solution so I should not try it even not scoring points (one "key": we can start by determining the parity of cell g7, I think). By the way, Patrick, for this new feature, the "User defined puzzle", perhaps instead of having it embedded in the Forum, it would be more "visible" having a link somewhere in the main page, accesible to subscribers or to all puzzlers.

Yes, that will happen at some point, but for that I need puzzles to publish I'm also thinking the puzzle will be worth points, depending on its difficulty level (and the creator will be unable to score points for his/her own puzzle)

For example, today's 4x4 medium would look like this:
4 3,+,a1b1 9,+,c1b2c2 6,+,d1d2d3 36,*,a2a3b3 12,*,c3b4c4 1,+,a4 4,+,d4
Let me know if anything is unclear.
Patrick I have sent today a 7x7 puzzle and observed that the first line (the dimension) is not really necessary since yo have the option to select it in the upper small window, so I have sent only the coding starting by 7,|,a1a2 ... I hope the puzzle can be managed correctly in this way. Thanks.

clm wrote: I have sent today a 7x7 puzzle I saw it, thanks You're the first! Somehow I thought this feature would be more popular, but there you go. At least I didn't spend any time on automating the whole pipeline etc.. clm wrote: and observed that the first line (the dimension) is not really necessary since yo have the option to select it in the upper small window, so I have sent only the coding starting by Yes, that's fine. Whlie creating the submit page I realized I could "enforce" the size range [4x4, ..., 9x9] by creating a dropdown I should add some more validation code (parseable, all cells present, stuff like that).
