and

909091=10^6-10^5+10^4-10^3+10^2-10+1.

1111111=10^6+10^5+10^4+10^3+10^2+10+1

and

909091=10^6-10^5+10^4-10^3+10^2-10+1.

 

Compute the product of these two integers.

 

This is one way - I did it as the difference of 2 squares.

Heureka is doing it now as well, he probably has a better way...
