This puzzle involves a [http://xunor.free.fr/en/riddles/auto/pyramidnb.php Pascals Triangle], also known as a [http://xunor.free.fr/en/riddles/auto/pyramidnb.php Pyramid of Numbers].
[ 151]
[ ][ ]
[40][ ][ ]
[ ][ ][ ][ ]
[ X][11][ Y][ 4][ Z]
Each brick of the pyramid is the sum of the two bricks situated below it.
Of the three missing numbers at the base of the pyramid, the middle one is the sum of the other two (that is, Y = X + Z).
;Task: Write a program to find a solution to this puzzle.
Ada
The solution makes an upward run symbolically, though excluding Z. After that two blocks (1,1) and (3,1) being known yield a 2x2 linear system, from which X and Y are determined. Finally each block is revisited and printed.

Z := (2*N4 - 7*N3 - 8*N2 + 6*N1) / 7

REM Describe the puzzle as a set of simultaneous equations:
REM a + b = 151
REM a - c = 40
REM -b + c + d = 0
REM e + f = 40
REM -c + f + g = 0
REM -d + g + h = 0
REM e - x = 11
REM f - y = 11
REM g - y = 4
REM h - z = 4
REM x - y + z = 0
REM So we have 11 equations in 11 unknowns.
REM We can represent these equations as a matrix and a vector:
DIM matrix(10,10), vector(10)
matrix() = \ a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, x, y, z
\ 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, \

vector() = 151, 40, 0, 40, 0, 0, 11, 11, 4, 4, 0

This solution is based upon algebraic necessities, namely that a solution exists when (top - 4(a+b))/7 is integral. It also highlights the type difference between floating point numbers and integers in C.

Field equation solver
Treating relations between cells as if they were differential equations, and apply negative feedback to each cell at every iteration step. This is how field equations with boundary conditions are solved numerically. It is, of course, not the optimal solution for this particular task.

Clojure
X and Z are the independent variables, so first work bottom up and determine the value of each cell in the form (n0 + n1X + n2Z). We'll use a vector [n0 n1 n2] to represent each cell.
(def bottom [ [0 1 0], [11 0 0], [0 1 1], [4 0 0], [0 0 1] ]) (defn plus [v1 v2] (vec (map + v1 v2))) (defn minus [v1 v2] (vec (map - v1 v2))) (defn scale [n v] (vec (map #(* n %) v ))) (defn above [row] (map #(apply plus %) (partition 2 1 row))) (def rows (reverse (take 5 (iterate above bottom))))
We know the integer value of cells c00 and c20 ( base-0 row then column numbers), so by subtracting these values we get two equations of the form 0=n0+n1X+n2Z.
(def c00 (get-in rows [0 0])) (def c20 (get-in rows [2 0])) (def eqn0 (minus c00 [151 0 0])) (def eqn1 (minus c20 [ 40 0 0]))
In this case, there are only two variables, so solving the system of linear equations is simple.
(defn solve [m] (assert (<= 1 m 2)) (let [n (- 3 m) v0 (scale (eqn1 n) eqn0) v1 (scale (eqn0 n) eqn1) vd (minus v0 v1)] (assert (zero? (vd n))) (/ (- (vd 0)) (vd m)))) (let [x (solve 1), z (solve 2), y (+ x z)] (println "x =" x ", y =" y ", z =" z))
If you want to solve the whole pyramid, just add a call ''(show-pyramid x z)'' to the previous ''let'' form:
(defn dot [v1 v2] (reduce + (map * v1 v2))) (defn show-pyramid [x z] (doseq [row rows] (println (map #(dot [1 x z] %) row)))

Haskell
I assume the task is to solve any such puzzle, i.e. given some data
puzzle = [["151"],["",""],["40","",""],["","","",""],["X","11","Y","4","Z"]]
one should calculate all possible values that fit. That just means solving a linear system of equations. We use the first three variables as placeholders for ''X'', ''Y'' and ''Z''. Then we can produce the matrix of equations:
triangle n = n * (n+1) `div` 2 coeff xys x = maybe 0 id $ lookup x xys row n cs = [coeff cs k | k <- [1..n]] eqXYZ n = [(0, 1:(-1):1:replicate n 0)] eqPyramid n h = do a <- [1..h-1] x <- [triangle (a-1) + 1 .. triangle a] let y = x+a return $ (0, 0:0:0:row n [(x,-1),(y,1),(y+1,1)]) eqConst n fields = do (k,s) <- zip [1..] fields guard $ not $ null s return $ case s of "X" - (0, 1:0:0:row n [(k,-1)]) "Y" - (0, 0:1:0:row n [(k,-1)]) "Z" - (0, 0:0:1:row n [(k,-1)]) _ - (fromInteger $ read s, 0:0:0:row n [(k,1)]) equations :: [[String]] - ([Rational], [[Rational]]) equations puzzle = unzip eqs where fields = concat puzzle eqs = eqXYZ n ++ eqPyramid n h ++ eqConst n fields h = length puzzle n = length fields
To solve the system, any linear algebra library will do (e.g [http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/hmatrix-0.2.0.0 hmatrix]). For this example, we assume there are functions ''decompose'' for LR-decomposition, ''kernel'' to solve the homogenous system and ''solve'' to find a special solution for an imhomogenous system. Then
normalize :: [Rational] - [Integer] normalize xs = [numerator (x * v) | x <- xs] where v = fromInteger $ foldr1 lcm $ map denominator $ xs run puzzle = map (normalize . drop 3) $ answer where (a, m) = equations puzzle lr = decompose 0 m answer = case solve 0 lr a of Nothing - [] Just x - x : kernel lr
will output one special solution and modifications that lead to more solutions, as in
*Main run puzzle [[151,81,70,40,41,29,16,24,17,12,5,11,13,4,8]] *Main run [[""],["2",""],["X","Y","Z"]] [[3,2,1,1,1,0],[3,0,3,-1,1,2]]
so for the second puzzle, not only X=1 Y=1 Z=0 is a solution, but also X=1-1=0, Y=1+1=2 Z=0+2=2 etc.
Note that the program doesn't attempt to verify that the puzzle is in correct form.
J
Fixed points in the pyramid are 40 and 151, which I use to check a resulting pyramid for selection:
chk=:40 151&-:@(2 4{{."1)
verb for the base of the pyramid:
base=: [,11,+,4,]
the height of the pyramid:
=> 'chk', 'base' and 'ord' are the knowledge rules abstracted from the problem definition.
The J-sentence that solves the puzzle is:
```j

Mathematica
We assign a variable to each block starting on top with a, then on the second row b,c et cetera. k,m, and o are replaced by X, Y, and Z. We can write the following equations:
b+c==a
d+e==b
e+f==c
g+h==d
h+i==e
i+j==f
l+X==g
l+Y==h
n+Y==i
n+Z==j
X+Z==Y
And we have the knowns
a->151
d->40
l->11
n->4
Giving us 10 equations with 10 unknowns; i.e. solvable. So we can do so by:
eqs={a==b+c,d+e==b,e+f==c,g+h==d,h+i==e,i+j==f,l+X==g,l+Y==h,n+Y==i,n+Z==j,Y==X+Z};
knowns={a->151,d->40,l->11,n->4};
Solve[eqs/.knowns,{b,c,e,f,g,h,i,j,X,Y,Z}]
gives back:
{{b -> 81, c -> 70, e -> 41, f -> 29, g -> 16, h -> 24, i -> 17, j -> 12, X -> 5, Y -> 13, Z -> 8}}

Interestingly, this appears to match Python in that 40 is propagated up the tree, whereas Perl and Go appear to propagate 22+2x+z up, not that I can think of any case where that would make a difference.

Racket
(Based on the clojure version)
Only X and Z are independent variables. We'll use a struct (cell v x z) to represent each cell, where the value is (v + xX + zZ).
#lang racket/base
(require racket/list)
(struct cell (v x z) #:transparent)
(define (cell-add cx cy)
(cell (+ (cell-v cx) (cell-v cy))
(+ (cell-x cx) (cell-x cy))
(+ (cell-z cx) (cell-z cy))))
(define (cell-sub cx cy)
(cell (- (cell-v cx) (cell-v cy))
(- (cell-x cx) (cell-x cy))
(- (cell-z cx) (cell-z cy))))
We first work bottom up and determine the value of each cell, starting from the bottom row.
(define (row-above row) (map cell-add (drop row 1) (drop-right row 1)))
(define row0 (list (cell 0 1 0) (cell 11 0 0) (cell 0 1 1) (cell 4 0 0) (cell 0 0 1)))
(define row1 (row-above row0))
(define row2 (row-above row1))
(define row3 (row-above row2))
(define row4 (row-above row3))
We know the value of two additional cells, so by subtracting these values we get two equations of the form 0=v+xX+zZ. In the usual notation we get xX+zZ=-v, so v has the wrong sign.
(define eqn40 (cell-sub (car row4) (cell 151 0 0)))
(define eqn20 (cell-sub (car row2) (cell 40 0 0)))
To solve the 2 equation system, we will use the Cramer's rule.
(define (det2 eqnx eqny get-one get-oth)
(- (* (get-one eqnx) (get-oth eqny)) (* (get-one eqny) (get-oth eqnx))))
(define (cramer2 eqnx eqny get-val get-unk get-oth)
(/ (det2 eqnx eqny get-val get-oth)
(det2 eqnx eqny get-unk get-oth)))
To get the correct values of X, Y and Z we must change their signs.
(define x (- (cramer2 eqn20 eqn40 cell-v cell-x cell-z)))
(define z (- (cramer2 eqn20 eqn40 cell-v cell-z cell-x)))
(displayln (list "X" x))
(displayln (list "Y" (+ x z)))
(displayln (list "Z" z))
