Lines: 19 This is probably not new or original, but I think it might be fun: Using integers and any arithmetic operators, try to make constant equations that have the same digits on both sides. For example, -1 + 2 ^ 7 = 127 ( ^ is exponentiation ) "Extra credit" is given for having the digits in the same order, as above. "Less credit" is given for having operators on both sides. -- Toby Gottfried FileNet Corp {ucbvax,ihnp4,decvax}!trwrb!felix!toby Costa Mesa, CA
