Clues:   A56 = 6           AB6 = 8           B12 = 9           BCD4 = 12      C23 = 8

            D12 = 7           DEF1 = 10       DEF5 = 8         F34 = 8

In a 6x6 Latin Square, you are to fill a square grid with numbers from 1 to 6 so that each row and column contains one of each number (i.e., no repetitions in a row or in a column.)  The clues give you the sum of some two or three in a row.  Use labels A-F across the bottom, 1-6 up the side.  For example, if ABC3 = 9 were a clue, that would mean that A3 + B3 + C3 adds up to 9.
