Goal: Complete the Greater & Less-Than Sudoku. Rules: - Each row, column, and 3×3 box must contain digits 1–9 exactly once. - Every inequality symbol compares the two horizontally or vertically adjacent cells beside it. - The pointed end of <, >, ^, or v faces the cell containing the smaller number; the open end faces the larger number. - Only displayed symbols impose an inequality. A gap without a symbol gives no extra relationship between its cells. - Given numbers are fixed.
