AiS Challenge Team Abstract

School Name: NM Tech

Area of Science: Math

Project Title: All for One

The purpose of our project is to develop an efficient algorithm to solve the following math puzzle: Find the sum of two 3-digit numbers so that every digit in the problem is unique and only the numbers 1-9 are used.

We hope to develop a more efficient algorithm that could be applied to similar problems.

To achieve this we will first write a program that will generate all the possibilities using a brute force algorithm. Then we will organize the resulting data, look for patterns, and develop a more efficient algorithm.
