| Mar 9, 2016 at 13:39 | comment | added | Pietro Majer | Couldn't you just replace the ordered 9-uple (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) e.g with the 8-uple (12,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) and then check them all? after all there are only 2^8 ways of gluing together these digits (remove a comma or not) to get shorter k-uples, and for sure the last ones like (123, 456, 789) are trivial... | |
| Mar 9, 2016 at 12:49 | comment | added | LegionMammal978 | @PietroMajer Sadly, that would also make the program explode. | |
| Mar 8, 2016 at 12:22 | comment | added | Pietro Majer | e.g. 9*(8+6*7*5+4)-3+21 | |
| Mar 8, 2016 at 9:28 | comment | added | Pietro Majer | It would also be funny looking at monotonic expressions allowing the base 10 notation, like (12+345)*6-... I wonder if there is any giving 2016! | |

| Mar 7, 2016 at 13:03 | comment | added | LegionMammal978 | @CalumGilhooley I just used a small C# program. I would also include logarithms, but it makes the program explode. | |
| Mar 7, 2016 at 12:49 | comment | added | Calum Gilhooley | LOL! It's quite worrying how much this pleases me. :) By the way, what programming language did you use? | |
