Dear Gao Zhiyuan,

thank for your email and the order-36 penta-magic square.
Is that square your own result?

I checked the square and found out:
The numbers are not consecutive and the diagonals are only trimagic.
Are these statements correct?
Then the square is a non-normal trimagic and semi-pentamagic square.
But anyway it is a very, very good result.

I will send the square to Christian Boyer. He has a great website about 
multimagic squares:
http://www.multimagie.com

I could not receive your order-256 tetramagic square.
Please can you send it once again?
When did you find that square?

Regards from Nuremberg (the home of Albrecht Duerer) in Germany

Hi Gao Zhiyuan,

nice to hear from you again! And i am really interested to hear from 
your researches and results. 

The magic square you sent is really good, but i have another of this 
type. It was constructed by David M. Collison in 1991. It is like 
yours trimagic and semi-magic in 4th and 5th dimension, which means 
that only the diagonals miss the right sum. But Collisons square is 
still better i think, because both diagonals have the same sum:
c41=c42 and c51=c52.

This means that there is still a lot of work, now as the first real 
trimagic square of order 12 was found.

regards holger

Hi Gao Zhiyuan,

oops, i have forgotton to attach the magic square...

Excuse me, if i didn't say it clear enough: of course the trimagic 
square is from Walter Trump, who found it in June 2002. Just beore i 
wrote your email, I got an email from Walter Trump, who sent me his 
work. And all i wanted to say ist that i had to start to integrate 
his work on my web pages and look for further algorithms.

The mi(q) language to construct magic squares is really interessant 
for me. If there is any possibility to learn something about this 
language, i would be pleaesd. My computer researches to analyse magic 
squares use the language 'perl'. And all cgi scripts to create magic 
squares on www.magic-squares.de use also perl of course.
