Objective / Rules
- Complete the grid such that every row and column contains the numbers 1 to the size of the grid.
- Every row and column contains each number exactly once.
- A cage clue tells you the answer after the cage values have undergone the specified mathematical operation.
- The clues don't tell you which way round the numbers are, just the answer to the calculation.
- A number can appear more than once in a cage. Note: this is different to Killer Sudoku.

- 'use default' ➞ use the default, non-numeric keyboard (0 ≠ auto-pencil marks).
- 'disable 0' ➞ disable the 0 for auto-pencil marks.
- 'add / remove' ➞ add / remove characters, entering the same character again will remove it (by removing all duplicates and sorting).
Pencil Marks
- Pencil marks are squares with more than one digit / letter.
- Just like you might use if you were using pen and paper.
- A square might contain more pencil marks than can be seen.

Checking
