Take one 1, two 2s, three 3s, four 4s, five 5s, six 6s, seven 7s, and eight 8s and place them in a 6-by-6 grid, one digit per square, such that each row, column, and major diagonal sums to 34.

(In reply to re: My Solution by Rob)

I believe you are both grammatically incorrect.  I believe you are making the exact same assumption Dustin is making (about a different part of the sentence). 

The comma after row implies that it means each column as well. (That is copied word for word from your reply with the necessary words changed to make it apply to your invalid statement.)

How is what you are saying anything different from what Dustin is saying, and how if so are either of you correct.
