Magic squares of order 4 with a magic constant of 34 had been around for hundreds of years before Dürer. But no matter, they’re still fun. 😉
Renaissance sudoku then, Soutie?
Here is one I created, in only 30 seconds on 30/03/2003. The numbers all add up to 30, as above. My initials are C.C. C is the 3rd letter of the alphabet!
15 2 1 12
4 9 10 7
8 5 6 11
3 14 13 0
Admittedly I had the benefit of Albrecht Durer’s square from which to work. 🙂
Oh, and I created it today and not in 2003, and my initials are not really C. C.
Double 🙂
