Maths
Class: first-order.
The shared predicates define the notation and every named predicate.
|cells|=2 ∧ pairRelation(relation,V(cells[0]),V(cells[1]))
The two cell values obey the supplied relation. The shared predicates define each relation: difference, ratio, sum, inequality, multiple or shift.
The shift relation is defined for integer values.

```rules
sudoku 9x9
pair r1c1-r1c2 relation {"op":"sum","value":10}
```
Satisfies the rule: r1c1=3, r1c2=7. 3 and 7 add up to the stated total 10.
Breaks the rule: r1c1=3, r1c2=8. 3 and 8 add up to 11 instead of 10.
