4901

(4+9+0)*1 = 13

CONCATENATE(RIGHT(4901),RIGHT(LEFT(4901)+MID(4901,2,1))) = 13

4927

√4*9+2-7 = 13

CONCATENATE(SQRT(MID(4927,2,1))-MID(4927,3,1),RIGHT(4927)-LEFT(4927)) = 13

Has your browser page returned to normal width? Mine has.

Re: Add 13 more and post it forever.

Yes, mine has too...and thank goodness for that! Having to scroll right to read the off-the-page stuff was a drag. I thought it would correct itself on this new page.

The same happened on another forum I'm on, but it was something to do with putting long text in between quotation marks...but the text wasn't longer than the page width!

P.S. gee... it's looking much better now!
i guess i know the importance of Variables in Maths!!!

That's a top idea, ZHero!

I went back and changed my post on page 15 so that it now fits.

Re: Add 13 more and post it forever.

Nice, ZHero!

Took me all day to type it into my calculator...and it's good.

Is there an easy copy/paste of math code into some program that can read it and do the sums? WolframAlpha didn't like the flavour of my paste.

, which gives accuracy to only quite a few decimal places.

Hi phrontister;

5096

This one has some negative elements so it demonstrates negative energy, the energy of a vacuum. I have no doubt that this magic square will lead to significant advances in physics.

Taking phrontisters advice, partially. See next post.

Re: Add 13 more and post it forever.

Hi  Bobby,

Now, I don't want to get too negative about this, but I'm positive that, given your renowned, well-justified aversion for mathematical physicists, it would have been more prudent for you to have tucked your magic square behind MIF's 'hide' tab rather than to expose it naked to the world here in a non-members' area of this most popular public forum, where any mischief-bent undesirables can lay their grubby hands on it and do their dastardlies. <brrrr!>

The awful, aptly-named 'obliteration bomb' is a prime example of something that had great potential for advancement of good to go horribly wrong once the technology found its way into dark, unscrupulous hands. One shudders to think of the profound, dire consequences should its full potential ever be unleashed!

I fear that prevention of misuse of the magic square's powers may already be too late, but if I were you I'd employ moderator privilege and delete that throbbing post!

5109

Being so overcome with the emotion of the moment, I can't think of a single thing that I can do with this number.

EDIT: The emotion has waned...
5-1+0+9 = 13
