   Extractions: Allan Adler's Suzanne's Magic Squares Multiplying Magic Squares: Contents Exploring the Math A magic square is an arrangement of the numbers from to n^2 (n-squared) in an n x n matrix, with each number occurring exactly once, and such that the sum of the entries of any row, any column, or any main diagonal is the same. It is not hard to show that this sum must be n(n^2+1)/2 The (or, what is essentially the same, the 4x4 magic square I use) has many interesting special properties that are not shared by magic squares in general. They are so interesting that they are often pointed out when this square is presented. That is good, but can sometimes lead to misunderstandings as to which is the meat and which is the gravy. The meat is the definition I gave above. The gravy (or some of it), suggested by Jerome S. Meyer in his book, Fun with Mathematics

    Extractions: Money Experience Welcome to the Math Square. The directions are simple. In each square put numbers until the total for the row (if you add up all the numbers) is equal to the value next to the row. Make sure you get the right values in each column and in the diagonal direction too! To see what it looks like, look below Note: This was called "Magic Square", but the name has been changed since it was not really a "magic square" where all rows, columns and diagonals added up to the same number. We offer three versions of this game. The first just uses numbers 1-9, the second lets you enter the starting number and then uses the next 8 numbers, and the third uses a set of random digits between 1-99. In all cases the center digit is filled in for you. No digit is used twice. We have added a nice feature that shows the numbers that are used in the Math Square. If you want to play the hard version really hard, play it without seeing the numbers. If you want to play it easier, turn on the numbers (they will be displayed above the game). Have fun! Starting Number:

    In the easy level, you are given the numbers beginning from one and must createa magic square. How large would you like the magic square to be on each side?  
    http://www.allmath.com/magicsquare.asp
    
    Extractions: Magic squares have been a fascinating topic in mathematics for centuries. They are formed by filling in all the squares with the numbers starting from one so that the sum of all row, columns, and diagonals is the same. If you know how to play, you can use the square below. Otherwise, read the instructions and fill in the form at the bottom to begin a new game. Numbers to use: Numbers you have used: In this game, you must fill in the magic squares. In the easy level, you are given the numbers beginning from one and must create a magic square. The medium difficulty level is similar, but instead of getting each row, column, and diagonal to add to the same value, each one has a different value which is given to you. In the hard level, you are given random numbers, some positive and some negative, and you must place them in the square to get the sums given to you. To start playing, you first select whether you want a 3 by 3 square, 4 by 4 square, or 5 by 5 square. As the square gets bigger, the puzzle becomes more difficult. Next, you select the difficulty level you wish to play.

    Extractions: M agic Square Models On this page I show photographs of handicraft projects made using magic squares, magic stars and related subjects as the theme. It is a rewarding experience to hold, for example, an actual 3 dimensional model of a magic star or cube, instead of simply viewing a 2 dimensional version of it on paper. Unfortunately, a photograph simply reverses the process, and we are once again viewing a 2 dimensional version of the object. CONTENTS of order-5 (but lots of combinations). A Cross-stitched Magic Star of order-6. Points also are magic. Any pandiagonal magic square may be considered as being on the surface of a torus in stead of a plane. Order-4 Magic Square constructed with wooden blocks and dowels of order-3. Magic lines shown with dowels. An 8-point star with 12 lines of 3 numbers sum to 27. As above, but 3 missing numbers inserted to now give 22 lines summing correctly. 12 = 3 x 4, 56 = 7 x 8, 9 is not equal to 0.

    Extractions: KOREAN(Çѱ¹¾î·Î) Since July 1997 History of Magic Square Suzanne Alejandre's Lo Shu Magic Square homepage shows a detail legend of Lo Shu in China. Magic squares have been around for over 3,000 years.. What's a Magic Square? The following definition is a quote from Allan Adler's What is a Magic Square? homepage. A magic square is an arrangement of the numbers from to n^2 (n-squared) in an n x n matrix, with each number occurring exactly once, and such that the sum of the entries of any row, any column, or any main diagonal is the same. It is not hard to show that this sum must be n(n^2+1)/2. What I'm saying is.. . When I was young I saw a 3x3 magic square. It was just a kind of puzzle for me. As time passed, I saw the solution for magic squares of odd-series and some multiples of four, and I changed my mind. I started to find out the solution for all numbers. I tried to look for any books written on magic squares, but I could not find a regular solution for n=6,10,14,.. at anywhere. Even somebody said 'It's an unsolved mystery'. But, I found out the principle of constructing squares for other sizes and checked that sums are correct by using a computer. Perhaps a man I don't know has already solved this mystery. I hope that more information and news are exchanged at this site. Anyway, I am content to have solved it by myself. Now, the magic square is no more an unsolved mystery. What I'm saying here is " It's Not Impossible!!

    Extractions: In this way, in a few minutes every student would answer two or three questions, and everyone was paying attention because he or she could be asked to answer the next question. This kind of "military drill" is not acceptable anymore, but achieving almost automatic computation of sums of small numbers requires a large amount of practice distributed over a long period of time, which is quite a boring activity.
