Zero to a Hundred in 1996 (Posted on 2002-08-15) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Using the digits in 1996 and any operations (but not mathematical constants), try to write equations that have the numbers from 0 to 100 as the answer.

For example with 1995:

  • 0 = 1*(9-9)*5
  • 2 = (19-9)/5
    etc.

    Provide as many as you can. Digits 1,9,9 and 6 do not have to appear in order. (But each digit has to be used - 1 and 6 once, 9 twice.)

    This is more of a game than a puzzle

    Ooooo, I don't like that greatest-integer thing. That's cheating... ;-) I'm going to try to make do without needing that...

    I like the 32, 33, 67 and 71 (and implied 31) though - missed those, even though I've used √9 in other places...
