The environment enables the user to typeset Hakyuu logic puzzles (aka Seismic, Ripple Effect, ...). Fill the cells of an area with numbers from 1 to SIZE of the area. If there are two cells with the same number N in a row or a column, there must be at least N cells between those two cells. Here’s a little self-explanatory example:
