Standard Kuromasu rules: Shade some empty cells black so that each number indicates the total count of white cells connected vertically and horizontally to that number including the numbered cell itself. Black cells cannot share an edge, and all white cells must belong to a single connected group.

For automatic solution checking, the shaded cells must be marked in black or a shade of gray.
