    The Parker square, named after recreational mathematician Matt Parker, [55] is an attempt to create a 3 × 3 magic square of squares — a prized unsolved problem since Euler. [56] The Parker square is a trivial semimagic square since it uses some numbers more than once, and the diagonal 23 2 + 37 2 + 47 2 sums to 4107 , not 3051 as for all the ...

    As a running example, we consider a 10×10 magic square, where we have divided the square into four quarters. The quarter A contains a magic square of numbers from 1 to 25, B a magic square of numbers from 26 to 50, C a magic square of numbers from 51 to 75, and D a magic square of numbers from 76 to 100.

    Eight queens puzzle. The eight queens puzzle is the problem of placing eight chess queens on an 8×8 chessboard so that no two queens threaten each other; thus, a solution requires that no two queens share the same row, column, or diagonal.

    Start by creating a (2n+1)-by-(2n+1) square array consisting of n+1 rows of Ls, 1 row of Us, and; n-1 rows of Xs, and then exchange the U in the middle with the L above it. Each letter represents a 2x2 block of numbers in the finished square.

  9. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

    y = x 3 for values of 1 ≤ x ≤ 25. In arithmetic and algebra, the cube of a number n is its third power, that is, the result of multiplying three instances of n together. The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 2 3 = 8 or (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square:
