Re: Add 99 more and post it forever.
Hi Bobby,
You've got duplicate expressions in posts #859 and #861, but different answers.

Hi phrontister;
I have corrected that error. For some reason this little routine to format the answers is not fully debugged. When he asked for bold answers I thought the change would be easy but I was wrong.

Re: Add 99 more and post it forever.
Hi Bobby,
I think MIF's BB wouldn't pick up M's formatting, so you'd have to include bold's formatting symbols in M's output. This works:-
Input:
expression = "10^3+13^3+16^3+18^3+31^3+2 x 90^2+92^2+93^2+98^2"; n=85833; Print[expression, "=", "[ b]", n, "[ /b]"]
Output:
10^3+13^3+16^3+18^3+31^3+2 x 90^2+92^2+93^2+98^2=[ b]85833[ /b]
(I included a space after each left bracket so it would print here and not act on the code, so just delete them in your M code.)
Copy/paste (without those spaces I mentioned) into the post gives this:-
10^3+13^3+16^3+18^3+31^3+2 x 90^2+92^2+93^2+98^2=85833
12^3+21^3+29^3+37^3=86031
-12x3-21x3+29x3+37x3=99

Hi;
That is almost exactly what I did!
16^3+17^3+18^3+22^3+26^3+87^2+88^2+90^2+94^2+104^2=86130
