Pattern

Sorry, this Javascript puzzle doesn't seem to work in your web browser. Perhaps you have Javascript disabled, or perhaps your browser doesn't provide a feature that the puzzle code requires (such as typed arrays). These puzzles have been successfully run in Firefox 19, Chrome 26, Internet Explorer 10 and Safari 6.

Fill in the grid with a pattern of black and white squares, so that the numbers in each row and column match the lengths of consecutive runs of black squares.

Left-click in a square to mark it black; right-click (or hold Ctrl while left-clicking) to mark it white. Click and drag along a row or column to mark multiple squares black or white at once. Middle-click (or hold Shift while left-clicking) to return a square to grey (meaning undecided): dragging like that can erase a whole rectangle, not just a row or column.
