[net.math] Musing on ABCDE

dap (07/21/82)

Anyone flaming and/or working on the ABCDE problem should read chapter 5 of
an old (1967) book entitled "Computer Programming and Related Mathematics" by
Richard Andree.  In it he presents 3 examples of mathematical problems that
are best solved (primarily) by thinking, not coding.  One of them is:

	Find all four digit integers that are perfect squares and contain
	only even digits.

A simple problem, just like ABCDE.
