Question

Draw a 5x5 square,put the numbers (1 to 5) in each raw and column so that each number should be surrounded by the other numbers only(i.e.that number should not be included).

The numbers 1 to 5 should be in all lines, each vertical, horizontal and diagonal line should have all the five numbers(1,2,3,4,and 5).

e.g: number 3 should be surrounded by other than 3,like...2,5,1,4.

it should not come in contact with the other (3)above, underline,besides,or diagonally, and the same rules are for the other numbers.

good time :rolleyes:

Surprisingly I solved it in about 10 seconds. I just drew out a grid and placed the 5 number 1's on the board so that they each fit the criteria, not too difficult. Then I though to myself "self, what if I simply moved this grid one square down for the 2's, another for the 3's etc." and it worked! I simply put a 2 under each 1. When I got to the bottom I just rolled it over to the top. I would imagine this would work for any direction.
