Mathematics-Magic Square

Magic square of order 'n' is an arrangement of n² numbers. In this square all rows and all columns contain ' n ' elements. Sum of particular row or particular column or the diagonals is always equal and the same constant.

Suppose we want to create magic square of order 3, then it contains 9 elements.

The constant sum in every row & every column and diagonals is called magic constant or magic sum.

The Magic constant is calculated using the formula, M = n ( n² + 1 ) / 2 ; n => order of magic square.
