Mystic square
The square array of the integers 1 through ''n''2 that is generated when a method for constructing a 4 × 4 magic square is generalized was called a mystic square by Joel B. Wolowelsky and David Shakow in their article describing a method for constructing a magic square whose order is a multiple of 4.〔Joel Wolowelsky and David Shakow, “Magic Square,” The Mathematics Students Journal, published by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Fall 1963, pp 3–4〕
A 4 × 4 magic square can be constructed by writing out the numbers from 1 to 16 consecutively in a 4 × 4 matrix and then interchanging those numbers on the diagonals that are equidistant from the center. (Figure 1). The sum of each row, column and diagonal is 34, the “magic number” for a 4 × 4 magic square. In general, the “magic number” for an ''n'' × ''n'' magic square is ''n''(''n''^2 + 1)/2.
==Properties of a mystic square==
As seen in the example for a 6 × 6 square (Figure 2), the properties of the mystic square are related to those of a 6 × 6 magic square. The sum of the diagonals is 111, the magic number for a 6 × 6 magic square. The sums of the rows increase arithmetically with a common difference of 12 and an average of 111. The columns also increase arithmetically with a common difference of 2 and an average of 111. The quotient of the two common differences is 6. This pattern proves true for all values of n. For the special case of ''n'' = 4 (where the mystic square is already a magic square), the quotient of the common differences is the indeterminate 0/0, which may be assigned the value 4 for consistency.
