Comments in green were written by me. Comments in blue were not written by me.
For Day 23, I assume the 3-digit numbers are read top to bottom and left to right?

So the bottom right corner must be odd (the ones digit of an odd number) and it must be even (the ones digit of a multiple of 4)? Isn't that a contradiction if I'm understanding the problem correctly?
