Hi,
The sets of 3 values in the bottom of the cycle must be readed from right to left or all the universal cycle top and bottom from left to right and the columns from top to bottom ?
Thanx for the challenge

A cycle is a "closed loop". The direction of reading should be irrelevant to the problem as everything is unordered.

Turn out I did missed something basic: a set must include 3 "different" numbers.
So the answer is indeed only one. :D sorry for the carelessness.

Your wrong interpretation would also not satisfy "appear exactly once".
