I, like Dacre, will feel a little 'cheated' if more than +-*/ need to be used (cheated out of a half hour of my life!)- maybe DJ will surprise us.
If we do need to go beyond these four symbols which do you think is more fundamental? (which would you learn first at school). Or, which of the proffered equations would a child most likely work the answer out to be 55?
Sqr root comes first but would a 'child' understand 'factorial' before '0.4 doesn't need the zero'?
I think .4 is neater than 4! so I'm going with,
44root4/.4*4 =55 (really just a rearrangement of Your Buddy's second offering)
