The rules of Futoshiki (More and Less) math puzzles:
1. Numbers may appear only once in a row and column
The above example of on of our Futoshiki puzzles is a 6 by 6 grid, which means that each row and
each column must contain the numbers 1 to 6. You may not have a number twice in a row or column.
2. Follow the greater and less symbols
Greater than and less than symbols are placed between some of the cells indicating that a numbers
in these cells is bigger or smaller than a neighbouring cell.
Do you know the number of the top left cell in the example above? It must be a 1, as it has to smaller than the 2 next to it.
