reinout-g:

maybe people would consider this cheating but nobody said we could only use basic computations.
Here we go...

0= 1*(9-9)*4... ........................ Grmal
1 = 1994
2 = -1-9/9 +4.. .........................Melody
3 = -1-9 +9+4.. ....................... Melody
4 = -1+9/9+4.... .........................Melody
5 = ceiling [ (-1+9) / 9] + 4... .....Melody (I am cheating a bit here, ceiling means find the answer and round it up to the nearest whole number)
5 = 1+9-9+4...........................Demogorgon
6 = 1+4+9/9...........................Demogorgon
7 = 19-(9+4)...........................Demogorgon
8 = sqrt(9)*sqrt(9)-14
9 = 9*149
10 = sqrt(9)*sqrt(9)+14
11 = 9+sqrt(4)*14
12 = 9+sqrt(4)+14
13 = 9+9-(1+4)...........................Demogorgon
14 = (9+9-4)*1...........................Demogorgon
15 = 1+9+9-4...........................Demogorgon
16 = 9+9-sqrt(4)*1
17 = 9*4-19...........................Demogorgon
18 = 9+9*14
19 = 9+9+14
20 = 9+9+sqrt(4)*1
21 = 9-1+9+4...........................Demogorgon
22 = (9+9+4)*1...........................Demogorgon
23 = 9+9+4+1...........................Demogorgon
24 = (9-14)*sqrt(9)
25 = (99+1)/4...........................Demogorgon
26 = -1-9+9*4 ... .......................Melody
26 = 9*4-(1+9)...........................Demogorgon
27 = 9*4*1-9...........................Demogorgon
28 = 9*4+1-9...........................Demogorgon

29 = (9+1)*sqrt(4)+9

Anyone care to join in using some more computations?


30 = 49-19...........................Demogorgon

36 = 9(9-4-1)...........................Demogorgon
37 =

39 = 49-(9+1)...........................Demogorgon

40 = (49-9)*1...........................Demogorgon
41 = 4(9-1)+9...........................Demogorgon
42 = 91-49...........................Demogorgon

44 = 9(9-4)-1...........................Demogorgon
45 = 9*4*1+9...........................Demogorgon
46 = 9*4+1+9...........................Demogorgon

50 = (9+1)(9-4)...........................Demogorgon

54 = 9(9-4+1)...........................Demogorgon

57 = 9-1+49...........................Demogorgon
58 = 99-41...........................Demogorgon

67 = 9*9-14...........................Demogorgon
68 = 9(9-1)-4...........................Demogorgon

75 = 94-19...........................Demogorgon
76 = 9*9-1-4...........................Demogorgon
77 = 9*9*1-4...........................Demogorgon
78 = 9*9+1-4...........................Demogorgon

84 = 9*9-1+4...........................Demogorgon
85 = 9*9*1+4...........................Demogorgon
86 =9*9+1+4...........................Demogorgon

94 = 99-4-1...........................Demogorgon
95 = 9*9+14...........................Demogorgon
96 = 91-4+9...........................Demogorgon

Hi all
Another quiet Sunday/Monday
There were some great answers from reinout-g, ifrogot1 and mathlight and Alan. Thanks folks.
Alan, I am really impressed with your contributions. Thank you.
Reinout-g, thank you so much for taking charge of the puzzles and recreation posts. I consider them as a really important extension to every day 'school' maths. Whatever you can do to generate interest will be greatly appreciated.

I recieved a reply email from Andre Massow today outlining his intentions for development of the forum. Andrew Massow is the sole designer and operator of this website.
This is a quote from his letter.
"Thanks for your great eMail.
I am currently redesigning the question forum from scratch and you will be the first to see the prototype in the attached screenshot.
As soon as an working prototype is ready, I will send you an exclusive link so that you can have a look at the new features."

I am sorry Reinout-g but he did not mention your request. Maybe after he does these upgrades he may have time to look at requests such as yours.

I intend to reply to this email in the next day or two.
These are some of the thoughts that I am having.
1) I would like moderator rights. The main reason why I want this is so that I can remove really offensive (non-mathematical) material immediately.
2) Codeybarr30 only post unsolicited advertising and it would be more appropriate to de-register them than to give them posting recognition.
3) People who have not posted for a period of 2 months or so should not be included as top answerers. There are 2 members on this list that I have not even heard of.
4) I would really like a check-a-box thank you system to be introduced. This is a feature of other forums and it has a lot of merit.
5) Instead of stating the number of answers, it would be more helpful if the names of the answerers were given. Also, who posts the 'finished' tick?

I also want to talk to Andre about the possible problems with the calculator and see if we can get formulas etc easily from the calculator to the forum.
It would be good if we could have ongoing communication regarding the calculator and its development.
I see that Andre has overcome the problem with the ad blocker. The advertising is necessary for fund raising and the ads are not intrusive. (They are in the calculator section)
I had requested an extra page or two, for information posts etc, but I think Andre does not want to do this and it is not vital to us.

Would any one like to comment on or add to this list ?
You can post on this thread if you have something to add, OR I will make a new post in the body of the forum and you can post there if you prefer. OR You can send me a private message if you prefer to.

This is the attachment screen shot.
