Take the digits 2, 0, 0 and 3. Make equations equating to all the integers from 1 to 150 using these digits according to the following rules:-

a) The above digits are the only digits to be used and no other digits should appear anywhere in the equation (except on the side where the answer will be).

b) Use of any mathematical symbols are allowed.

c) The digits 2, 0, 0 and 3 should appear in the given order in the equation. e.g - 0 + 2 + 3 + 0 = 5 is not acceptable.

d) When using the mathematical symbols try using the most simplest forms as much as possible.

(In reply to re(3): did it - aka spoiler by Cory Taylor)

I wonder that nobody told you during this long time, but you clearly violate the first rule with this method:
no other digits should appear anywhere in the equation

The parameter in the bottom of the summation is a digit. But nice trick! ;)
