- Memorize small-number combinations: 3 = 1+2, 4 = 1+3, 17 = 8+9.
- A two-cell sum of 3 must be 1 and 2; a two-cell sum of 4 must be 1 and 3.
- Use intersections to eliminate digits that cannot satisfy both sums.
- Look for cells that are the only place a certain digit can go in a run.
- Mark possible combinations for each clue to avoid recalculating.
- Start with the most constrained runs, usually those with few cells.
