Hello
I need to build an algorithm that gets 3 numbers like 10,20,30 for example and build new matrix that contains 3 squares that contains this numbers(for example one square with size 2*5(slot sum is 10) that contains in every slot "10" and more one square with size 5*4(slot sum is 20) that......) in wish to build each one of this 3 squares most Equilateral square like and the matrix in wish to be most Equilateral square like too, and the matrix can have 1 empty slot or remove maximum 1 slot from the 3 squares sum of slot to do that.
How i can do this?!!?
Any point to start with like mathematical idea or something?
Thanks alot!

In short how i add 3 matrixes to new one by the rules:
Each one of the 3 matrices need to add to the new matrix as square how much close to Equilateral square.
The new matrix can't contain more than 1 empty/death slot.
The new matrix can delete 1 slot from the sum of the 3 matrixes to to that.
The new matrix need to be most close as can to Equilateral!!
Now the question more understandable?
again thanks!

What do you mean "how"? By doing some programming work. http://www.whathaveyoutried.com? What's the problem?

And one example is not a description. If you want to describe some mathematical/algorithm problem, you really need to be very formal and should not be afraid of telling it all in detail.

Besides, what do you mean by "quadrilateral"? It could be a polygon with 4 sides, or a configuration with 4 lines and 6 points, or something else...

Do you mean matrix multiplication where T = transpose, e.g. (a b c) * (d e f)T = (10 20 30)?

Hello
Thanks for your answer.
I edited the question to be more understandable can you look again? because i think your answer is the solve but i need that you will be more specific.

Solution 2

First, aren't all squares equilateral? From your new description sounds like you need to add 3 matrices to make a matrix whose entries are square numbers: A + B + C = D, so for the first entry a11 + b11 + c11 = d11 and d11 = n^2, for some n. Look here: http://www.purplemath.com/modules/mtrxadd.htm.

They are square but not must be equilateral.
The link you have gave broken.
again: thanks

Solution 1

You could make a function that divides the number a number of times and sees which one gives you an even number, just an idea though.
