You only need to make it so that the query in the google search is the url for the answer.

Either subtract two or multiply by two, then raise the digit sum to the second powerMoosey wrote: December 5th, 2019, 11:51 am A difficult number-puzzle: go from 16 to 25 in two moves, using only the number two, the operations +, *, ^, /, and -, (only one operator per use) and adding together all digits once (per use). Not all of these must (or in this case can) be used.
That counts as three movesBlinkerSpawn wrote: December 5th, 2019, 3:39 pmEither subtract two or multiply by two, then raise the digit sum to the second powerMoosey wrote: December 5th, 2019, 11:51 am A difficult number-puzzle: go from 16 to 25 in two moves, using only the number two, the operations +, *, ^, /, and -, (only one operator per use) and adding together all digits once (per use).

Well done! That was the correct solution!testitemqlstudop wrote: December 5th, 2019, 9:26 pm Trivial:
1. 2^16 = 65536
2. Digit sum(65536) = 25
What do you mean by lexicographically? Do you mean 1 goes before 19349 goes before 2? Also, by "non-descending", do you mean ascending?testitemqlstudop wrote: December 6th, 2019, 2:04 am New number challenge I made up:
You have a number x. You square it, sort the digits in non-descending order, and remove exactly one digit. The resulting number is 123456. What is the lexicographically smallest x?
