Instructions

Number   


Note: In the bones displayed here, the minus sign is dropped from negative numbers. Positive and negative numbers are distinguished as red and blue. Also, ½ is dropped from the bones numbers. Therefore, bones diagonal sums appear to be off by 1 when there are not 2 positive and 2 negative numbers. Square number 1 is an example of this.
