Joined 31 May '06 Moves 35018 Once again, all integers from 0 to 100 with four fours, this time using only:
Parentheses ( )
Addition +
Subtraction -
Multiplication *
Division /
Square root sqrt()
Factorial ! (but not sub)
Power ^
Decimal .
and the overline (an infinitely repeating digit), show it as |
They can all be done!
Have fun!

hmm...what about 44? 44 is OK.
Joined 05 Jun '07 Moves 906 So the major change is no trig functions.

So the major change is no trig functions. Yes - along with several other things that appeared. Feel free to be creative in the other thread if you prefer - it would be interesting to see how far it could get on a no-holds-barred basis!

(4 / 4) / (4 / 4) = 1
Joined 07 Sep '05 Moves 35068 The last thread reached 30 before having to resort to the use of trig functions. We could just skip to there...

( sqrt( sqrt( (sqrt(4)^4!) ) ) + sqrt(4) )/2 = (2^6+2)/2 = 33

Joined 07 Mar '07 Moves 32955 Really hard one: 44-4-4=36
Joined 29 Apr '05 Moves 827 4! + 4 + 4 /|.4 = 24 + 4 + 4/(4/9) = 37
another one, but too long:
444 * sqrt(4) / 4! = 37

444 * sqrt(4) / 4! = 37 i contemplated the |.4, but then that is using more than 4 4's and isn't in the list of allowable operations...
Joined 29 Apr '05 Moves 827 its in the list of the thread starter though.
besides, when you write |.4 you have to write one 4 only. to me that seems a lesser problem than the sqrt which is 2nd root (and not 4th root or so)
