Fill a 9x9 grid with only the digits 1 to 9.
- Each row and column should comprise of three 3-digit primes.
- In each of the second, fifth and eighth rows and in each of the the second, fifth and eighth columns, the three 3-digit primes, in SuDoDu fashion, every digit 1 to 9 will be used once.
- In all other rows and columns digits may be repeated.
- All 3-digit primes should be distinct.
More than one solution may exist.
Dej Mar,
I really liked this problem, but tackled it the wrong way the first time.
Here is the solution I found.
5 5 7 2 2 9 5 9 9
7 6 9 5 4 1 2 8 3
1 3 7 7 1 9 3 3 7
6 1 9 4 3 3 1 5 1
5 4 7 1 6 3 8 2 9
3 9 7 9 7 1 1 1 3
8 8 3 2 8 1 4 6 3
8 2 1 6 5 9 3 4 7
1 7 3 9 9 1 1 7 9
