Fill in the squares so that each row and column contains each of the numbers 1 to 7 exactly once. An arrow shows whether a number is higher or lower than its neighbour, with the point of the arrow pointing to the lower number. HINTS You may find it useful when solving these puzzles to look for chains of squares connected by arrows.

Try also to place as many 1s and 7s as you can: 1s cannot of course be greater than any other number and 7s cannot be lower than any other number.
