Re: Challenges
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.

Re: Challenges
I interpreted the rules as allowing two expressions, each of which could use at most one of each symbol, is that not the case?
Re: Challenges
Taking the digit sum counts as a move
Your solution takes three moves:
1) 16-2
2) 1+4
3) 5^2 = 25
(Also, FYI, I know there is a solution because I constructed the starting and ending numbers from how the solution would work)

Trivial:
1. 2^16 = 65536
2. Digit sum(65536) = 25

Re: Challenges
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?

"Lexicographical" doesn't mean anything because the number of digits in x is forced to be 4.

Re: Challenges
0: The number of False statements is prime - TRUEMoosey, on his Wordpress, wrote: 0: The number of False statements is prime
1: All of these statements are false
2: There is a composite number of false statements
3: The number of false statements before this one is prime
4: The number of true statements is prime
1: All of these statements are false - FALSE
2: There is a composite number of false statements - FALSE
3: The number of false statements before this one is prime - TRUE
4: The number of true statements is prime - TRUE
Statement 1 cannot be true. If it were true, it would contradict itself. Thus, statement 1 is false, and at least one of 0, 2, 3, 4 must be true.
Now let us look at statement 3. Assume it is true. Then, to satisfy it, one or both of statements 0 and 2 are false. If both 0 and 2 are false, the number of false statements must be 0 or 1, which is a contradiction. Thus, exactly 1 of these two statements are true, and statement 3 is true.
We know now that one of statements 0, 2 is true, and statement 3 is also true. Thus, statement 4 is true, making the number of true statements 3.
Now, we can see easily that statement 2 is false, and statement 0 is thus true.
