perplexity
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Trial and error:
"Nothing odd about it," said the judge. "If OJS times OJS equals GUILTY... er... perhaps I'd better rephrase that. What we're looking for is an even number with three digits, no two of which are the same, which, when squared gives a six-digit number, no two digits of which are the same, or coincide with any of the digits of the original number."
Can you find a number fitting the judge's description?
