What is outside sudoku?

Outside sudoku is a puzzle that you won't come across too often.

It's a puzzle that has a standard looking sudoku grid, but with many less givens than you would usually expect to see.

Instead there are a range of numbers out side the grid, hence the name, and these indicate what the sum of the first three numbers in the row or column are (or the last three if the number is at the end of the row / column).

This extra information must be used in addition to standard sudoku rules to find the one unique solution to the puzzle.
