Re: 25 MILLION SOLVED
Cool! But wait, no code to submit? Not that I've already solved it, of course I haven't. Just wondering.

But it wouldn’t be just for this puzzle, Patrick. There’s also the 21x21 puzzle that you produced to celebrate reaching 21212121 total puzzles!

Re: 25 MILLION SOLVED
Thanks, fzpowerman - I'm glad you liked my bitwise OR puzzle. Believe it or not, it was originally going to be a twin puzzle. Patrick revealed that my first grid had a single solution and that the other had 3 solutions. He offered to combine the two separate grids into a single puzzle with a single solution. Upon closer inspection, though, he warned that my puzzle would've been WAAAY too easy and the bitwise OR operator would've basically been a moot point. I therefore decided to just use the original single-solution grid. Having made my puzzle without a computer program, I had no idea how many solutions each individual grid had until I got my message from Patrick.
