How to enter the clues

1One line per row

Write each row's numbers in order, separated by spaces. A row with clue 2 1 is typed as "2 1".

2Zero for blank lines

If a row or column has no filled squares, type 0.

3Same count both ways

The number of lines tells the solver the grid size: 10 row lines and 10 column lines is a 10 by 10 puzzle.

Questions

How do I use the nonogram solver?

Type the row clues, one row per line, with the numbers separated by spaces. Do the same for the column clues. Press Solve. For an empty row or column type 0.

Does it work for picross puzzles?

Yes. Picross, nonograms, griddlers and hanjie all use the same rules, so the same clues work.

What if there is more than one solution?

Some puzzles have several valid answers. The solver shows one of them and tells you that others exist.

Why does it say the clues do not match?

Rows and columns must add up to the same number of filled squares. If they do not, one number was mistyped.

Does it support color nonograms?

No. This solver is for black-and-white puzzles.
