Recreational Math – Kakuro Puzzle

[Cindy]

Hi Cindi,

Any ideas for the layout of the Kakuro Puzzle as indicated in this Recreational Math problem? (NOTE: In this copy, a few numbers have been handwritten in.)

Thank you.

Cindy

Much discussion has gone into this 🙂

Attached is one of the suggestions.  It uses the crossword puzzle concept and puts some of the numbers in the lower cell and some in the upper (to represent the upper and lower numbers in the puzzle).  No number signs are used so that the puzzle fits across one page.

Another suggestion would be to draw the basic structure (as a tactile) and then do the modifed version shown in the attached braille file.

We all agreed this is pretty ugly - even in print!

I forgot to say that of course a TN would be required to explain what you did 🙂
