Post subject: | Guessing for 7x7 difficult 21/04/2014? |
Hi, I'm wondering how often people "guess" a number and see if it works out. I got stuck on the 7x7 difficult puzzle from today (21/04/2014), meaning i could not find the next logical step in the puzzle. How i solved it was: There are two options for the 2401^ cell ([c1, d1, c2]) and eventually i "guessed" one of the two options to be able to move on. It turned out to be the right guess and i solved the puzzle. If i would have got stuck after filling in the next 10 or so steps i would have tried the other option. Is this common practice? I usually try to avoid this way of solving a puzzle but i really couldn't find the next step in a different way.. |

I did the correct guess also but am unaware of a definitive way of "knowing" which guess would be the correct one......by the way, the "guessing topic" has come up a number of times in past posts!! |
