10 - Fireball

Is the answer an iterative macro? Do you just randomize the numbers until the rows in each row/column hit the magic 45? Can someone give me the red pill? Here is the beginner sheep solution

Here's my solution to the beginner!  I'm going to have to give the intermediate some serious thought though haha.

think this is the hardest yet.. beginner and intermediate for now.. since intermediate took a while (mostly because i dislike sudoku)  i'd probably have to use a macro and work backwards to solve the advanced since not all values are known until others are solved
