Are you into sums? Nerdle is for you.

nerdlegame.com/

It's similar to Wordle, but with numbers composed into sums.
You can choose an 'easier' mode with 6 squares across instead of 8. Best of luck smile

Thanks FC for what you said at 03.34. . Without that it would have taken me at least one more row. That was BH!

So many clues in my first line, particularly knowing what the = was.
After a couple of 'doesn't compute' I used a tip I gave my year 6 when teaching.

Muse I was scrolling back to find something on BODMAS and realised I hadn't acknowledged your tips on clipboard so belated thanks.

I have no idea what BODMAS is and is probably the reason I failed today ☹️
Excellent muse

BODMAS

Many thanks. Knowing what the equation was going to equal helped hugely. That and only have a few numbers left to come up with the calculation.

Nerdle and my calculator did the BODMAS (checking) bit.

? Now you have it Nerdlers. I have owned up to using a calculator to check my calculations before committing to the enter button. Pen and paper help too. Standard calculators are allowed in exams so I don't feel too guilty ? .

I had paper and a pencil so that if inspiration hit me I could write it down,
While I am back-spacing to erase a part-done row and I could forget the new numbers to type IYKWIM ?

So you should be Maggie . I feel like I should have got it on the 3rd, but I needed to have switched 2 numbers.

Doodle that is very clever! ?
Well done Maggie! ?
I started it earlier, and predictably got my knickers in a twist.
Might go back to it later.
Don’t hold your breath though!
