Information for whiz kids:  How to produce most perfect magic squares from a 4x4 Sudoku
 
 
MOST MAGIC 12x12 MAGIC SQUARE:
 
It is also possible to produce squares that are odd multiples of 4, for example the 12x12 square. You need the following
2 Sudoku patterns:
 
● The first pattern of the 12x12 square is a 3x3 carpet of the second (don’t split it up!)  pattern of the 4x4 panmagic
square [see page ‘Sudoku method (1)’].
 
● The second pattern of the 12x12 square is a fixed pattern.
 
 
 1x digit from the first pattern

See on page ‘Basic key method (2) option a and b of the 12x12 most magic square and note that the 12x12 square
mentioned above has different magic features. The above mentioned 12x12 square is ‘Franklin panmagic’ (not on
½ but) on 1/3 of the rows, 1/3 of the columns and 1/3 of the [parallel] [mirrored] [bent] diagonals.
 
 
You can use the method mentioned above to produce perfect Franklin (for odd multiples of 4: ‘Franklin’) panmagic
squares for each multiple of 4. You need the (2x2, 3x3, 4x4, …) carpet of the 4x4 Sudoku pattern and a fixed
(8x8, 12x12, 16x16, …) pattern.
