    Extractions: Definitions The elementary magic figure is the magic square , a two-dimensional array of numbers in which the sum of every row, column, and diagonal is identical. This identical sum is called the magic number . The numbers of n-dimensional magic figures flow consecutively from 1 to m n , where m is the order (the number of elements along an edge of the figure), and n is the spacial dimension. Shown above is a 3x3 magic square; m = 3 and n = 2. "However, what was at first merely a practice of magicians and talisman makers has now for a long time become a serious study for mathematicians. Not that they have imagined that they would lead them to anything of solid advantage, but because the theory was seen to be fraught with difficulty, and it was considered possible that some new properties of numbers might be discovered which mathematicians could turn to account. This has in fact proved to be the case, for from a certain point of view the subject has been found to be algebraical rather than arithmetical and to be intimately connected with great departments of science such as the 'infinitesimal calculus,' the 'calculus of operations', and the theory of groups.

    Extractions: Report concerning magic square of squares (3x3) Jan/99 =============================================== In "Scientific American" VIII.98 Martin Gardner in his quarter century review mentioned the above problem : rows and columns to have the same magic some of distinct squares as well as both the diagonals. Of the latter I wasnt sure in the beginning, but at any rateI prefered to content my self with the so-relaxed version of the problem. On the other hand both solutions to the relaxed problem I succeeded to find have a square at least e , and we can put down an arrangement of equations like this : (1a') 71^2 - 66^2 = 5 * 137 = 685 = 5*137 [2] = (26, 3) = (19,18) 71^2 - 54^2 = 17 * 125 = 2125 = [4] = (46, 3) = (42,19) 71^2 - 51^2 = 20 * 122 = 2440 = 2^3*5*6 [2] = (46,18) = (42,26) 71^2 - 46^2 = 20 * 117 = 2925 = 3^2*5^2*13 [2] = (54, 3) = (51,18) 71^2 - 42^2 = 29 * 113 = 3277 = 29*113 [2] = (54,19) = (51,26) 71^2 - 26^2 = 45 * 97 = 4365 = 3^2*5*97 [2] = (66, 3) = (51,42) 71^2 - 19^2 = 52 * 90 = 4680 = 2^3*3^2*5*13 [2] = (66,18) = (54,12) 71^2 - 18^2 = 53 * 89 = 4717 = 53*89 [2] = (66,19) = (51,46) 71^2 - 3^2 = 68 * 74 = 5032 = 2^3*17*37 [2] = (66,26) = (54,46) (2'a) 79^2 - 74^2 = 5 * 153 = 765 = 3^2*5*17 [2] = (27, 6) = (21,18) 79^2 - 69^2 = 10 * 148 = 1480 = 2^3*5*37 [2] = (38, 6) = (34,18) 79^2 - 66^2 = 13 * 145 = 1885 =

    Extractions: Recommend this site The applet consists of two 3x3 arrays. On the left, the small one shows the target configuration. To modify the target configuration, click on the squares you want modified. On the right, a bigger one holds the puzzle itself and, if the Hint box is checked, the hint or, rather, the solution to the puzzle. The hint configuration is also modifiable and the current state of the puzzle changes accordingly. States are represented by a cyclic arrangement of digits - the residues modulo the number of states. I allow only 2, 3, and 4 state buttons for two reasons. For one, with more states the puzzle grew too difficult for me to solve. The second reason will become apparent from the puzzle's theory. The effect of pressing a button is best described by the following diagram where the button pressed is colored red and the affected buttons are blue. Other corner and side moves have an analogous effect. The applet allows for a second puzzle. Imagine the buttons wrapped on a torus. Then all buttons have exactly the same number of "across-the-edge" neighbors, 4. (In Computer Graphics terms, these are 4-neighbors.) In this modification, all 4-neighbors of a pressed button advance their states along with the button itself. Naturally, the first puzzle is rather Plane whereas the second is played on a Torus . For technical reasons the latter is only played with 3-state buttons. The theory Alexander Bogomolny

The only line of this evocation which I didn't fully understand was the last, where it shifted to invocation: 'By the sacred word-graph of heaven, I invoke thee...' There were no immediate obvious effects from the invocation, until many hours later while cooking a hen's egg in the mushroom-brewing pot at dawn I began channelling information about the gnostic deity Abraxas being the axis of Abr' , which seemed to represent both Abrahadabra (word of magical manifestation) and Abramelin the mage, an ancient magus whom I remembered had created or revealed several

    Extractions: The one below is a real brainteaser but from your experience with 3rd order magic squares it should be possible to crack the 16 number jackpot. Whereas in a 3rd order magic square only one number configuration (the 5 always in the middle, at the corners 2, 4, 6 and 8 which can be rotated but not replaced by other numbers) will yield the desired result, a smart French mathematician F. de Bessy found out a long time ago that there are 880 possible number configurations for a 4x4 magic square! No wonder they are called 'mega-magic squares'. Better you apply a similar method as with the 3rd order square, a giga effort and just work it out. Good luck! In a big square containing sixteen small squares the numbers 1 to 16 are distributed in a way that the sum of all four rows, all four columns and the two diagonals adds up to the same number. a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p row: a + b + c + d = x

    Extractions: MAGIC SQUARE VOCABULARY (Lois Hoshijo) Descriptor and Setting: Content Area Literacy "Magic Square" Math Vocabulary Strategy—Lois Hoshijo used the "Magic Square" vocabulary strategy in her middle school classroom to assess students' knowledge of definitions of mathematical terms. The procedure that Lois used is described by her as follows: I chose to use a 3 x 3 Magic Square that was an example from Art Scholastic (1993). The numerical total for each vertical, horizontal, and diagonal row was 18. I organized my activity with three separate sections: a) the 3 x 3 square each labeled with a letter, b) the list of content area terms, and c) the list of definitions for those mathematical terms. Students were directed to match each term with the appropriate definition, while they also considered the numbers denoting the terms as well as the letters denoting the definitions. Once the match was made, the number of the correct mathematical term was placed in the proper space of the square that was marked by the letter of the matching definition. Students were not informed about what the correct total of the Magic Square was. If their matches were correct, the Magic Square would be completed.

    Extractions: September 6, 2001 Math Chat wishes all students and teachers a happy and satisfying new academic year. Old Challenge: (National Public Radio Weekend Edition Puzzle 7/29/01). Complete the following to a magic square, in which each column, each row, and both diagonals sum to 1. Answer: Sudipta Das of Calcutta, India and R. Weirauch use the fact (proved by Weirauch and early the next morning by my house guest and college roommate Randy Kimble) that the center entry must be the average value of 1/3, as you might expect. (All columns, rows, and diagonals sum to 1.) It is now easy to fill in the rest. The middle left entry must be 5/12, then the bottom left entry must be 5/24, and so on. Here is Weirauch's proof that the center entry equals 1/3. Consider a square a b c d e f g h i Adding both diagonals plus the middle row yields 3 = (a + e + i) + (c + e + g) + (d + e + f) = 3e + (a + d + g) + (c + f + i) = 3e + 2. Therefore 3e = 1 and e = 1/3.
