				Hi,
 
 
It would be an additional "beauty" of a position that has all the numbers from 1 to 9 on both diagonals.
 
 
For a barrel of whisky, I could find you, such a nice one.
 
 
see u, |

  People like Sudoku because it is easy to solve. If you really want to see the real magic square of
 
order 9, you shouldn't neglect the 9x9 panmagic square, one example shows as follow:
 
 
     1    42    76     9    38    75     5    43    80           
 
    50    61    17    46    60    13    54    56    12           
 
    36    65    21    32    70    26    28    69    22          
 
    73     6    40    81     2    39    77     7    44          
 
    14    52    62    10    51    58    18    47    57          
 
    27    29    66    23    34    71    19    33    67          
 
    37    78     4    45    74     3    41    79     8           
 
    59    16    53    55    15    49    63    11    48           
 
    72    20    30    68    25    35    64    24    31           
 
 
9 Rows: Sum(1,42,76,9,38,75,5,43,80)=369
 
9 Columns:Sum(1,50,36,73,14,27,37,59,72)=369
 
2 Diagonals:Sum(1,61,21,81,51,71,41,11,31)=369
 
16 Broken diagonals:Sum(43,54,26,2,10,66,78,59,31)=369
 
9 3x3Blocks:Sum(1,42,76,50,61,17,36,65,21)=369
 
Any 3x3 Block:Sum(61,65,6,17,21,40,46,32,81)=369
 
Any 3x3 Broken block:Sum(42,1,80,61,50,12,72,20,31)=369
 
 
The form of Sudogu
 
 
   01  06  04  09  02  03  05  07  08  Row meets the rule.
 
   05  07  08  01  06  04  09  02  03
 
   09  02  03  05  07  08  01  06  04
 
   01  06  04  09  02  03  05  07  08
 
   05  07  08  01  06  04  09  02  03
 
   09  02  03  05  07  08  01  06  04
 
   01  06  04  09  02  03  05  07  08
 
   05  07  08  01  06  04  09  02  03
 
   09  02  03  05  07  08  01  06  04
 
 
   Column does not meet the rule, but diagonal meets the rule.
 
   Any 3x3 Block meets the rule.

Another 9x9 panmagic square's example completely meets the rule of Sudoku showing as follow:
 
 
    37    47    79    60    67    12    26     9    32          369

9 Rows: Sum(37,47,79,60,67,12,26,9,32)=369
 
9 Columns:Sum(37,3,11,62,52,36,24,68,76)=369
 
2 Main diagonals:Sum(37,35,6,19,17,69,55,80,51)=369
 
16 Broken diagonals:Sum(62,25,45,60,23,40,55,21,3 =369
 
 
The form of Sudogu:
 
 
   1  2  7  6  4  3  8  9  5  Row meets the rule.
 
   3  8  9  5  1  2  7  6  4

   Column meets the rule too.  Some diagonals (///) also meet the rule.
 
   9- 3x3 Block meets the rule.

The most "beautiful" Sudoku is based on the 9x9 bimagic square, 9 rows, 9 columns, and 2 nain
 
diagonals (actually also include 4-broken diagonals) meet the Sudoku rule, and magic sum 369, 
 
"square" sum 20049.
 
 
This 9x9 biamagic square's example completely meet the rule of Sudoku showing as follow:
 
 
  37  18  68  35   4  57  51  20  79
 
   2  61  33  27  77  46  13  66  44
 
  75  53  22  70  42  11  59  28   9
 
  58  30   8  74  52  24  72  41  10
 
  50  19  81  39  17  67  34   6  56
 
  15  65  43   1  63  32  26  76  48
 
  25  78  47  14  64  45   3  62  31
 
  71  40  12  60  29   7  73  54  23
 
  36   5  55  49  21  80  38  16  69  
 
 
9 Rows: Sum(37,18,68,35,4,57,51,20,79)=369 ;Square Sum=20049
 
9 Columns: Sum(37,2,75,58,50,15,25,71,36)=369 ;Square Sum=20049
 
2 Main diagonals: Sum(37,61,22,74,17,32,3,54,69)=369 ;Square Sum=20049
 
4 Broken diagonals: Sum(51,66,9,58,19,43,14,29,80)=369 ;Square Sum=20049
 
 
The form of Sudogu:
 
 
   1 9 5 8 4 3 6 2 7  
 
   2 7 6 9 5 1 4 3 8
 
   3 8 4 7 6 2 5 1 9
 
   4 3 8 2 7 6 9 5 1
 
   5 1 9 3 8 4 7 6 2
 
   6 2 7 1 9 5 8 4 3
 
   7 6 2 5 1 9 3 8 4
 
   8 4 3 6 2 7 1 9 5
 
   9 5 1 4 3 8 2 7 6
 
 
   Row meets the rule.
 
   Column meets the rule too.  
 
   2 main diagonals (1,9) and 4 broken diagonals (3,4,6,7) also meet the rule.
 
   9- 3x3 Block meets the rule.

				I almost forget the most important property of the 9x9 bimagic square:
 
 
9 3x3 blocks: Sum(37,18,68,2,61,33,75,53,22)=369 ;Square Sum=20049 |
