How to Solve Tango #749
Tango 749 has the following solution. S means sun and M means moon:
S M S S M M M S M S S M M S M M S S S M S M M S S M M S S M M S S M M S
- R2C4, R2C5 and R3C5 must match because of the two equal signs. With the central moons and row balance, all three become suns.
- R4C2, R5C2 and R5C3 form the second matching group. These are moons.
- Balance each row and column at three suns and three moons. Whenever two matching symbols sit together, the adjoining third cell must be the opposite.
- Check every line for triples, then check all four equal signs against the completed grid.
The supplied sun and moon cells remain fixed. No row or column contains three identical symbols in a row.
