It is UNIQUE in the world. A serial of sets of sudokus are formed from left to right and Name of a great person or thing is encrypted using numbers 1 to 9 repeatedly. All sudokus are full fledged sudoku with all vertical, Horizontal and each 3 x 3 small squares are filled with 1 to 9.
Unique in the world encrypted sudoku done for the famous Indian Mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan
The name “Sririnivasa Ramanujan” is encrypted in the Sudokus. The word “Srinivasa” is made with continuous letters 1 to 9 repeatedly. For example the letter “S” contins 14 square and filled with the numbers 1 to 9 and once again with 1 to 5. The next letter ” R ” will begin with the next number 6 and filled with 6 to 9 and from 1 to 9 onwards.
Each seperate coloured 9 x 9 squares is a full fledged sudoku with all the 3 x 3 squares are filled with 1 to 9 and all horizontal and vertical lines are also filled with 1 to 9.
This an UNIQUE featured one. Also I have done encrypted sudoku for Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi and many more leaders.
I was awarded the Prestegious “Ramanujan Award ” in 2016 in INDIA, which is so far awarded to two outstanding individuals in India, for their contributions in the field of Mathematics.
This award is given by the All India Ramanujan Maths Club, New Delhi. This was given at the 11th National Mathematical Convention held at Gandhi Nagar in Gujarat near to Ahmadabad on 26-11-2016. The award was presented by the Gujarat Speaker Ramanlal Orra.
The word “RAMANUJAN” occupied 89 cells and numbers 1 to 9 are used 9 times each and the balance filled with 1 to 8. 8 along with the properties of NORMAL SUDOKU.
1) The entire word “RAMANUJAN” is first written using 119 squares (or cells).
2) Numbers 1 to 9 are filled inside each of these letters.
3) In total, the numbers 1 to 9 are written 13 times and the remaining cells are filled with 1 and 2.
4) We then take each Sudoku of 9 x 9 individually and fill them. The total number of squares that are covered for the word/letter are filled 1 to 9, the adjacent Sudoku (in the right) will commence with the numbers next to the last with 1 to 9 till it fills in the alphabet in that 9 x 9 Sudoku, and the next word/letter will start with the filled number.
For example, the first sudoku contains 20 squares, that are filled with 1 to 9 two times and the balance with 1 & 2. Hence the next Sudoku will commence with 3 to 9, 1 to 9, and so on.
The word “RAMANUJAN” occupied 89 cells and numbers 1 to 9 are used 9 times each and the balance filled with 1 to 8. 8 along with the properties of NORMAL SUDOKU.
Having worked on a variety of special Magic squares ourselves, we could not think of a greater tribute to Srinivasa Ramanujan than this!
Summary
This is one of the biggest number puzzles we have done so far! This Biography Magic Square summarizes the important events that happened in the life of Sri Srinivasa Ramanujan.
The important dates in the life of Srinivasa Ramanujan were compiled from various sources. These dates were taken two digits at a time, representing either the date of the month or the month or the first/second half of the four-digit year. As an example, Ramanujan’s date-of-birth 22-12-1887, is taken as four separate entries as 22 12 18 and 87. In short, Ramanujan’s entire life history is reproduced here, from his birth to till date in Ramanujan-style.
Srinivasa Ramanujan 100 x 100 biography MagicSquare
Construction
Important dates from Ramanujan’s life were collected and these were then arranged horizontally in a row, from left to right. This row would form the top row of this biography magic square. The rest of the magic square is constructed after assembling this row.
This magic square has the properties of a conventional magic square, namely the sum of the entries along each row/column/diagonal sum up to the same magic-sum 2183.
It has these additional properties:
– starting from left to right, or, from top to bottom, we have embedded magic squares of orders 4 x 4 , 8 x 8, 12 x 12, 16 x 16, 20 x 20, and then in increased orders of 25 x25, 30 x 30, 36 x 36, 42 x 42, 49 x 49, 56 x 56, 64 x 64, 72 x 72, 81 x 81, 90 x 90, and finally 100 x 100. This is thus a cascade of magic-squares-inside-a-magic-sqaure!
Thus the total 100 x 100 Ramanujan Biography Magic square will contain the following 184 smaller magic squares of sizes as listed below:
Size of Magic Square Number of such Magic Squares Total Entries
4 x 4 Magic squares 25 25 ( 4 x 4 ) = 400 squares
5 x 5 Magic squares 20 20 ( 5 x 5 ) = 500 squares
6 x 6 Magic squares 24 24 ( 6 x 6 ) = 864 squares
7 x 7 Magic squares 28 28 ( 7 x 7 ) = 1372 squares
8 x 8 Magic squares 32 32 ( 8 x 8 ) = 2048 squares
9 x 9 Magic squares 36 36 ( 9 x 9 ) = 2916 squares
10 x 10 Magic squares 19 19 (10 x 10 ) = 1900 squares
Total 184 (Different sized squares) 10,000 Squares
The above is a 30 x 30 Magic Squares inside a Magic Square
This is a special construction of a Magic Square wherein we start with a small Magic Square (centermost one in the figure) and added rows and columns around it, ensuring that we have a Magic Square at each stage. This Magic Square has been color-coded to make the Magic Squares clearer.
From the center Yellow coloured is a 4 x 4 Magic square with a total of 1802 in all vertical, Horizontal and in both diagonals. When combininng with the blue coloured sqauare, that 6 x 6 will give a totl of 2703. Further it will expand to 8 x 8 , 10 x 10 etc… and finally it will become 30 x 30 with a grand total of 13515.
I have done this Magic squares inside the magic square from 5 x 5, 6 x 6, 7 x 7, …….198 x 198, 199 x 199 and 200 x 200. In the 200 x 200 Magic squares inside a magic square all the numbers from 1 to 40,000 are used and the row total will be 4,00,00,100. Also I am planning to do it upto 1500 x 1500.
Definitely, it is a gift given to me by Almighty. I thank the Almighty for giving me the idea, guided me to work, and helped me to complete it with much difficulties.
Let us do magic square to the date of Birth of our Greatest Indian Mathematician Sri Srinivasa Ramanujan.
His date of Birth is 22nd Dec 1887. The following is a Date-Of-Birth Magic Square with a Magic Total 139.
By following the given method we can do hundreds of, thousands of, millions of Date of Birth Magic Squares for any given date.
The following is a table with variables, which we will use in the explanation
Write the date in the top row first square, month in the second square and year in two parts in the third and fourth square.
Add all the four numbers and write on the top of the square (139).
Now we have to make a 4 x 4 magic square.
Draw a empty 4 x 4 square and replace 22 by A, 12 by B, 18 by C and 87 by D.
Now we know A,B,C and D. Rest of the values we have to find out.
Count all numbers in the total 1+3+9=13. Once again count 1+3=4. (add all numbers and make it a single digit. Write this in the H square
Now add B+C ( 12 + 18 =30). Divide 30 into two parts. i.e 14 and 16. Write 14 in W square and 16 in the Z square
By using the properties of Magic square, i.e all vertical, Horizontal and both Diagonal totals are equal, we are going to solve this Magic Square.
In the Fourth vertical column, we know the values of D,H,Z. we have to find Out the value of S. Hence S = 139 – (D+H+Z) = 139 — ( 87+4+16) = 139 – 107 = 32.This is the value of S. Write 32 in the S square
Now in Diagonals, we know the value of A and Z . Hence the value of F + R = 139 – (22 + 16) = 139-38= 101. Divide it into two parts 50 and 51 and write it in the F and R squares. F = 50 and R = 51.
In another diagonal, we know the value of D and W . Hence the value of G+Q = 139 – (87 + 14) = 139-101= 38. Divide it into two parts 17 and 21 and write it in the F and R squares. G = 17 and Q = 21.
In the second row, we know the value of E,G,H. Hence value of E=139-(E+G+H)= 139 –( 50+17+4)= 139 – 71 = 68. Write 68 in E.
In the third row, we know the value of Q,R,S. Hence value of P=139-(Q+R+S)= 139 –(21+51+32)= 139 – 104 = 35. Write 35 in P.
Now in the second vertical column, we know the values of B,F,Q. Hence value of X = 139 – (12+50+21) = 139- 83 = 56. Write 56 in X
Now in the third vertical column, we know the values of C,G,R. Hence value of X = 139 – (18+17+51) = 139- 86 = 53. Write 53 in Y
Now add the values of W,X,Y and Z. You will get 139 is the total.
Hurray!!! MAGIC SQUARE FOR 22-12-1887 IS READY
In step number 10, we have divided 101 into 50 and 51. Instead it can be divided into q and 101 or 1 and 100 or 2 and 99 etc. etc… Interestingly we can divide it as -1 and 102 or -2 and 103 or -3 ans 104 etc. While dividing each number, if the numbers are slightly changed, we can get a new Magic square.
Hence we can make hundreds of, thousands of, millions of date of birth magic squares for any given date
Enjoy Magic square for your date of Birth!!! In various methods….
