Good morning everyone!
It seems that I neglected to put the example in this week’s riddle. I’ve put it below. In the meantime, here’s a photo a teacher friend of mine sent me that’s guaranteed to make you smile:
Have a wonderful weekend,

The riddle in it’s entirety:
Your goal in this puzzle is to create a path of digits in a 5x5 grid that goes 1,2,3,4,5 and then repeats the digits in a loop. The path can start in any cell, and moves horizontally or vertically, but never diagonally, and cannot cross itself. Digits cannot repeat in the same row or column (just like Sudoku). Here’s an example of a path of length 12.
(The path stops because there is nowhere to put the 3 without breaking the rule of not repeating numbers in the same row or column.)
Can you find a path that has length 19, the maximum possible?
