A179440 The smallest magic constant of pan-diagonal magic squares which consist of distinct prime numbers 1

%I #38 Jan 09 2021 02:39:12

%S 240,395,450,733

%N The smallest magic constant of pan-diagonal magic squares which consist of distinct prime numbers

%C Classic pan-diagonal magic squares exist for orders n > 3 not of the form 4k+2.

%C Non-traditional pandiagonal magic squares exist for all orders n > 3.

%C Bounds for further terms: a(8) <= 1248, a(9) <= 2025, a(10) <= 2850, a(11) <= 4195, a(12) <= 5544, a(13) <= 7597.
