Extract

Pantactic squares were invented and studied by Astle [1]. From a review by Holzer [2] we learned that the number of distinct pantactic squares remained unknown; Astle himself only mentions that the number of distinguishable pantactic squares runs into hundreds. Therefore we turned the problem over to the computer. By a simple programme in FORTRAN, run on our CDC 3600/3200 computer, we found altogether 800 distinguishable pantactic squares.
