Yeah, but you can't make it work with a 1 digit number.

that is right
i didn't recognize that, because my email notifier was over the ZERO in the list, so i didn't see that there is a "WRONG" symbol.
so they had to fix this

don't worry ... everything is alrightOriginally posted by NikkiD@2 March 2003 - 18:51
Tried it three times and it was wrong three times... the fourth time it was correct though.
EDIT: damn this hangover... it was just me... :">

but if you like, i will give you a mathematical proof of it. and i am sure, then it becomes clear

I only knew the solution because I had seen the puzzle last week .

That'll teach me not to read things properly
ok .... i think it's time now:
let x,y element of {0,1,2,...,9}
then 10x + y is any one or two digit number.
and now we make the calculation they want:
10x + y - (x+y) = 9x
the symbol list failed for x=0 (exept of the :-), cause the symbol for 0 is not changing with the symbols for 9,18,...,81.
so they had to integrate the symbol for 0 to let it work for one digit numbers too
now you are able to proof, that this works for ANY natural number
