How to solve straights

Fill the white cells so every row and column holds distinct digits, and each run of white cells between the black cells is a set of consecutive numbers.

The method

1Spot the runs. The black cells split each row and column into runs. A run of three white cells holds three consecutive numbers in any order.
2Use the length. A run of length L can only hold numbers within a window L wide, so its highest and lowest digits are L apart.
3Respect the whole line. Digits never repeat across a full row or column, and a black clue digit is excluded from the white cells of its line.
4Narrow the windows. A given digit fixes a run’s window. Cross rows against columns until each cell has one option.

The one rule: Distinct digits per line, and each run a set of consecutive numbers.
What the answer page shows: The completed grid is printed at the back.
How the grades differ: Bigger grids bring longer runs and fewer givens.
Good for: Solvers who like sudoku with a twist.
