Re: chess board sum

Hi yuvaraj 358;

Welcome to the forum.

If I understand the problem correctly, I think the answer is 2^(2^63).

Some facts about the answer (according to WolframAlpha):

(a) It = 2^9223372036854775808.

(b) It = 10^(10^18.44349949917649).

(c) It's 2776511644261678567 decimal digits long.

(d) Its last ten digits are 1456608256.

Re: chess board sum

That is what I am getting too!


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
