A cross-figure (also variously called cross number puzzle or figure logic) is a puzzle similar to a crossword in structure, but with entries that consist of numbers rather than words, where individual digits are entered in the blank cells. Clues may be mathematical ("the seventh prime number"), use general knowledge ("date of the Battle of Hastings") or refer to other clues ("9 down minus 3 across").
