Initial line & color logic solves 98%. There is a blue section remaining in C25-32 and a black section remaining in C13-17.#3: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Feb 21, 2023
Smile logic finishes the black.
C25: If the top 2 extends into R10, it creates a contradiction in R12. Therefore, it must extend into R12 instead.
LL to finish.
