[edit] Importance overstated?

I kind of have the feeling the importance of this type of puzzle is rather overstated in the article. There are many sudoku variants without their own wikipedia page. One that has been around for quite a while is one with only the + operator; this puzzle is merely a simple extension of that principle as there are many. Since it seems this puzzle type is claimed to be brand new I think it still has to prove itself being worth of all the praising going on here. Also the large table is... huge.

[edit] KenKen puzzle

The solution to the KenKen puzzle on the page is incorrect according to the rules it states. There are two 3s in one column. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anctel (talk • contribs) 09:24, 30 April 2008 (UTC) Anctel (talk) 09:26, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

I think the 3 and 6 in the top row (Col 2 & 3) have just been transposed. Anctel (talk) 06:43, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Data Table

In the Data Table, shouldn't there be two entries under 240 for 4 squares? Anctel (talk) 12:46, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
