An example to follow
On one puzzle in this collection, row 1, column 1 has 6 in its solution. Read the clues on your current board before using that value; another puzzle can need a different entry. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Notes are reminders, not final entries. A full board only counts as complete when it satisfies every rule. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
