				| After basics: 
  	  | Code: |  	  | +----------------+--------------+---------------+
 | 5   128  1278  | 478 9    6   | 1278 3    248 |
 | 4   9    278   | 3   27   1   | 278  6    5   |
 | 3   1268 12678 | 5   247  278 | 9    1278 248 |
 +----------------+--------------+---------------+
 | 9   5    68    | 2   367  37  | 4    78   1   |
 | 2   7    4     | 1   8    9   | 3    5    6   |
 | 1   68   3     | 47  467  5   | 278  278  9   |
 +----------------+--------------+---------------+
 | 6   12   9     | 78  127  278 | 5    4    3   |
 | 7   4    5     | 9   123  23  | 6    128  28  |
 | 8   3    12    | 6   5    4   | 12   9    7   |
 +----------------+--------------+---------------+

 Then I used the following chain: (2*-1)r9c7=[r9c3-(1=2@)r7c2 =r1c7]-(12@=8)r1c2-(8=2|7)r2c35-(27=8)r2c7-(2*8=7)r6c7-(7=8)r4c8-r4c3=r6c2 contradiction (i.e. 8r16c2) => r9c7 <> 2; stte.
 
 I just noticed though that the chain would be a little cleaner if I had started with the assumption that r7c2 was a 2!

				| Well done dongrave. I see what you mean about starting with r7c2(1=2)! 
 Can you bring me up to speed with what @ signifies in your Eureka ?
