The Number of a Type of Magic Squares and Its Construction Algorithm
Abstract
In this paper, we give a formula to count the exact number of a special type of magic squares of nonnegative integers. We also present a simple algorithm to construct such magic squares. Keywords : Magic square, Magic constantReferences
