    Dedication. The magic square section of this website is dedicatedto my father EB Grogono (1909 1999). What is a magic square?  
    http://www.grogono.com/magic/index.php
    
    Extractions: Introduction. A Magic square is intriguing; its complexity challenges the mind. For order 4 and above the number of different magic squares is astonishing - and the number remains large even if we limit consideration to Pan-Magic squares. This website reflects my own fascination with these large numbers and presents techniques aimed at explaining and reducing the huge numbers by showing how this abundance can be reduced to a small number of underlying patterns or Magic Carpets Discoveries. The development of this website was associated with several intriguing discoveries. Please look at the pages for the Order 4 Order 5 Order 6 magic squares. Dedication. This Magic Square website is dedicated to my father E.B. Grogono (1909 - 1999) and was originally created at his bedside during his last illness. My fondest memories of him, from my earliest childhood to the final days of his life, center on his ability to transmit his love for, and fascination with, mathematics and science. Revision This revision uses up to date technology to make the website easier to manage and the material has been re-arranged to make it more accessible. A glossary has been added and the index system has been revised.

    Extractions: Size: Index The Formula for Magic Squares Why this "Formula" Page. One of the commonest questions I receive by e-mail is: "What is the formula for Magic Squares?" Rather than go on answering each e-mail individually, I thought I would write this page. So, as promised in the introduction page, here is "The Formula". A Single Formula? Unfortunately, No! . It would be nice to find that a single simple equation would generate magic squares of any order. With the diversity of patterns used to make the different squares, it is obvious that no single equation could exist. In addition, some of the equations must be fairly complex. There is, however, a simple formula for the prime number regular pan-magic squares, e.g., for orders 5, 7, 11, 13, etc. Knight's Move Basis. The following formula is based on the Knight's Move technique for making magic squares. It is broken into two components, one for generating the low order bit pattern and one for the high order bit pattern. MOD(x - 2y, 5)

30. Magic Squares With Odd Rows And Columns
    Describes a simple method to create magic squares with an odd number of rows and columns. A workthrough of 3x3 square.  
    http://www.betnorth.com/magicsquares.htm
    
    Extractions: A magic square is a square of integers where all the rows and columns plus the diagonal add up to the same number. This page describes a simple method of forming a magic square with odd rows and columns. The method is a surprisingly simple one and mainly consists of writing consecutive numbers down and to the right. Lets write down the rules and then we will create a 3 by 3 magic square which should explain the rules as we go along. 1.Find the middle square and put the number "1" in the square below 2.Put the next number down 1 row and across 1 column. I.e. diagonally down. This is the general rule from now on. Just go down diagonally with consecutive numbers. 3.If there is no row below , put the number in the first row, next column to the right.I.e. "pretend" the 1st row is the one after the last. Similarly, if there is no column to the right, put the next number in the first column, one row down. 4.A special case of the above is where you are in a corner and there is no row down AND no column to the right. In this case go down 2 rows, using the "pretend" about columns and rows mentioned above. This rule also applies where there is already a number in the square you want to go to, which is a bit like an internal corner.

    Extractions: Ian Stewart, University of Warwick Order from Amazon.com. "At first glance magic squares may seem frivolous (Ben Franklin's opinion, even as he spent countless hours studying them!), but I think that is wrong. The great nineteenth-century German mathematician Leopold Kronecker said 'God Himself made the whole numberseverything else is the work of men,' and Cliff Pickover's stimulating book hints strongly at the possibility that God may have done more with the integers than just create them. I don't believe in magic in the physical world, but magic squares come as close as we will probably ever see to being mathematical magic."

    Extractions: Ivars Peterson's MathLand October 14, 1996 "In my younger days, having once some leisure (which I still think I might have employed more usefully), I had amused myself in making . . . magic squares." Benjamin Franklin, who made this comment in a letter written more than 200 years ago, was certainly not the first to experience the fascination of magic squares. People have been toying with these number patterns for more than 2,000 years. Typically, a magic square consists of a set of integers arranged in the form of a square so that the sum of the numbers in each row, each column, and each diagonal add up to the same total. If the integers are consecutive numbers from 1 to n ^2, the square is said to be of n th order. Here's an example of a magic square of the fourth order, made up of the first 16 integers. The sum of the numbers in each row, column, and diagonal is 34. There are 880 possible magic squares of the fourth order, not counting reflections or rotations of each pattern. One of the most remarkable of these squares is one that dates back to India in the eleventh or twelfth century. Notice that not only the rows, columns, and diagonals add up to 34 but also the corner 2 x 2 subsquares. And there's more! The four corner numbers add up to 34, as do the four numbers in the center. Other subsquares (such as 3 + 10 + 6 + 15) give the same result. It's also possible to find "split" subsquares and "split" diagonals that work: 7 + 2 + 14 + 11, and so on. In fact, there is an astonishing number of different ways to get the sum 34 out of this particular magic square.

    Extractions: by Alex Bogomolny April 1998 In Merlin's Magic Square , an article that appeared in The American Mathematical Monthly in 1987, Don Pelletier explored the mathematical apparatus behind a toy game known as MERLIN . The game is not quite trivial and the mathematics is simple enough to provide an entertaining exercise in a Linear Algebra class. The original game is played on a 3x3 array of buttons that toggle between two states. The goal of the game is to achieve a target configuration of button states by pressing the buttons. The difficulty lies in that pressing a button alters its state but also toggles states of some neighboring buttons. The applet below generalizes the game in three ways: Buttons are multistate, The target configuration is modifiable, The manner in which pressing a button affects its neighbors is selectable. 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.
