Posts: 774 Country : India | rakesh_rai posted @ 2011-01-17 11:43 AM A feature being tried out this time is that of "anonymous ratings". On the score page, the average rating and number of solvers who rated will still be visible. But A cannot see ratings given by B (and vice-versa). |

Posts: 10 Country : India | muralik7 posted @ 2011-01-17 10:06 PM Rakesh, the moment I started reading first word of IB, it was very much involving and extremely interesting till the end. With my limited exposure to different kinds of puzzles/sudokus, I find these very interesting. Finishing touch (Tennisdoku) is superb. Coincidentally I read this on the day Australian Open began :). Looking forward for the test. |

Posts: 329 Country : India | neerajmehrotra posted @ 2011-01-20 8:32 PM Para - 2011-01-16 3:32 AM For Prime Number sudoku, are we provided with a list of prime numbers made up of different digits? Because to be honest I don't know all prime numbers by head between 1 and 9 digits (I don't even know them past 2 digits), or be able to figure out if for example 7142957 (which is) or 7148563(which isn't) is a prime or not on the spot. Becaused the file I found to confirm if these numbers were or weren't, contains 1 million numbers. And I don't exactly feel like sorting through it to filter out all primes that only contain different digits, just for the sake of being able to solve the sudoku. The list of first 500 prime numbers is here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_numbers Hope this will be sufficient to solve the puzzle. |

Posts: 774 Country : India | rakesh_rai posted @ 2011-01-21 5:13 PM The points for grids are rough indicators of the difficulty level of the grid. However, your experience can vary. For every sudoku grid, exactly 10 cells are marked as answer key. I do hope that you find time to take and enjoy the test over the weekend. In case of any issues during the test, you can send PM/mail to me. (pe.jpg) Attachments ---------------- pe.jpg (43KB - 3 downloads) |

Posts: 81 Country : India | Tejal Phatak posted @ 2011-01-22 2:18 PM Really good set of puzzles..... Had a great time solving them! I personally liked DNA Sudoku best but unfortunately could not submit the answer to it because of lack of few seconds... Kombinance and Kid were enjoyable too... Thanks for the test Rakesh, got to solve some new and really good variants! :) |

In product sudoku, you were very close - in fact, you missed entering only one digit in the answer key. Sorry to say that we cannot award any partial marks. |

Posts: 148 Country : France | Ours brun posted @ 2011-01-22 6:20 PM Thanks for this nice test Rakesh. I must admit that I wasn't completely enthousiast about some of the puzzles, which rules did not seem very interesting to me, but you exploited them well and I really had pleasure today. Only 10 puzzles solved out on 13 because of, as usual, lots of mistakes - and also a printing problem. But no big deal, I came for fun and fun was there. See you all on next LMI test, Bastien |
