View Full Version : magic square

here is 5 rows , 5 columns with 25 squares
what is the right arrange of numbers in these squares that gives the next results :
- the sum of the numbers in any row = 65
- the sum of the numbers in any column = 65 ;)
peace be upon you

hope you like it
and if you want the algorism tell me

well done ahmad , i will appreciate posting the algorithm ;)
peace be upon you

I tend to solve it but in the reversed way ;-)

good uniball
i think it is the same like mine (it is just mirror)
any way thats the algorithm

Yes that's trye. I follow the direction from Left to Right.

guys you are persistences , ok i had wrote a little research about ,
the magic squares with odd number of squares in row or column has many featuers
and i will tell you about some of them you deserve it
-*- the center square must have a specific number with the following formula :
c = ( s + 1 ) / 2
when :
c -> the value in the center square
s -> the number the squares
in our case
c = (25+1)/2
c= 13
the center square must be 13
you must figure it now uniball and a_elhoseeny the mirror case can not
happen with the center square
-**- another thing the sum of the each row or column can be specified by the following formula :
t = c * n
when :
t -> the sum of the numbers in each row or column
c -> the value of the center square
n -> the number of the squares in each row or column
in our case
t = 13 * 5 = 65 ;)
maybe later we will talk about the compound magic squares
peace be upon you
