There is an error in the example puzzle. You are right 8 cannot be placed in R7C5 if an O is given there.
For the given word mapping O can only be replaced by 1,2,4.

We will publish the corrected example in the corrected version of the IB.

Please explain what '2 odd 2 even' is. Not sure what is meant by '2 consecutive numbers of the same parity'
Thanks

Parity refers to Odd or Even numbers. There cannot be more than two consecutive Odd or two consecutive even numbers in any row or column in the Sudoku. Example, if the two neighboring numbers in a row or column are 1 and 3, then there must not be an odd number on either side of 1 3 as it will become three consecutive odd numbers.

Sorry, this question is specifically directed at the actual puzzle which appears in the test and is not intended for better understanding of the rules, so we will not be able to answer it.

Great Test.Enjoyed it a lot.Ideally should have finished the test easily within time,but the Coded 9*9 sudoku turned out to be a total Nightmare .
:(
Thank you to the authors for a really interesting set of sudokus.

Good set of sudokus .Very disappointed again that I coudn't complete but I can take positive from the fact that I was very close to finishing.Was about to enter the solution for 5 pointer classic when the timer ran out.So just had the 1 pointers left unsolved and the 5 which I couldn't submit.Coded was the hardest.Favourites are 2 even 2 odd(8) followed by True or Lie (7).Thanks a lot Kumaresan and Amit for the fun test .
