Technique 4 :


Block and column / Row Interaction

This method won't help you pencil in any new numbers, but it will help you nail a number down within a specific row or column. The example shows that the number 7 can only be inserted in the red cells of the middle row. Thus you can remove 7 as a possible candidate from the rest of the row.

Block / Block Interaction

This technique is best understood by looking at the example. In the middle and the middle-right blocks, the number 8 must be placed in one of the red cells. This means, we can eliminate 8 from the upper and lower rows in the middle-right column.
