Explanation 29x29 magic square

The 29x29 magic square is odd and a prime number. To construct a 29x29 magic square use the same methods to construct a 5x5, 7x7, 11x11, 13x13, 17x17, 19x19 and 23x23 magic square. Most perfect magic 29x29 square is panmagic and symmetric.

For more detailed explanation see the 5x5 magic square.

Construction methods

The methods to construct an 29x29 magic square are:

• Diagonal method
• Siamese method
• Knight movement method
• Symmetric transformation
• Lozenge method
• Shift method
• Ultra magic
• Pan 27x27 in 29x29 (1)
• Pan 27x27 in 29x29 (2)
• Concentric
• Concentric with diamond

With the first five methods you can construct simple, symmetric 29x29 magic squares.

Use the shift method to construct panmagic 29x29 squares.

The ultra magic 29x29 square is panmagic and symmetric.

Pan 27x27 in 29x29 and concentric [with diamond] are specials.
