:: [[Int]] | Lengths of occupied cells in each row |
-> [[Int]] | Lengths of occupied cells in each column |
-> Maybe [[Bool]] | Solution to the puzzle, if it exists |
Nonograms are picture logic puzzles invented in 1987, spreading from Japan to across the world. They look like this:
□ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 3 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 2 1 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 3 2 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 2 2 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 6 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 1 5 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 6 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 1 □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ 2 1 3 1 7 5 3 4 3 2 1 5 1
Essentially, each row and column of a rectangular bitmap is annotated with the respective lengths of its distinct strings of occupied cells. The person who solves the puzzle must complete the bitmap given only these lengths. Published puzzles are larger than this example, e.g., \(25 \times 20\), and apparently always have unique solutions.

Examples
>>>
:{
printNonogramSolution $ nonogram [[3],[2,1],[3,2],[2,2],[6],[1,5],[6],[1],[2]] [[1,2],[3,1],[1,5],[7,1],[5],[3],[4],[3]] :} ■ ■ ■ 3 ■ ■ ■ 2 1 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 3 2 ■ ■ ■ ■ 2 2 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 6 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 1 5 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 6 ■ 1 ■ ■ 2 1 3 1 7 5 3 4 3 2 1 5 1
Hint
If there is a string of occupied cells with length 9 in a row of 10 cells, can we infer which cells in the row must be occupied?
