@aliasgherman; There are mathematically consistent system & subsystems of lin. eq.+ logically implemented subsystem to the puzzle. Alltogather they generate unique solution ,which isn't 94. One side of the puzzle people here realized fine,but another part seems they didn't. Instead of giving you complete solution for this case I'll show you one more puzzle which belongs to the same cathegory of the puzzles (courtesy of IHIQS): ----------------------------------------| BARROW =71 NEWTON =70 WHISTON =104 SAUNDERSON=129 COLSON = 51 WARING =92 MILNER =58 WOODHOUSE=108 TURTON =80 AIRY =46 BABBAGE =84 KING =45 LARMOR =58 DIRAC =52 LIGHTHILL =130 HAWKING =____? -----------------------------------| Text is the same as before and your objective is to figure out professor's Hawking numerical value . The situation here is a little bit different becouse now you have 19 unknowns but "only" 15 simultaneous equations at first glance. Brute force approach will not work again. However,just like in the previous puzzle the solution is unique. Have fun. cheers

Besides,are you sure there isn't room for something like TWO independent (but consistent) systems of equations with juggled integers values regarding alphabetical order ? Fact that choice of value for "Y" isn't logically clear / unique is good enough sign for suspicious minds. I repeat that FEYNMAN=101 is the ONLY correct solution to the puzzle! Bye, Mike

Now when it is practically solved I must inform you that chioce Y=19 is not the most logical one. In that case would be FEYNMAN=94 ,but take a look how all the others are valued. Do you see / note that no two physicists are equally valued ? Somebody already got 94 there FEYNMAN=101 is correct answer. Ask Nathan H. to explain you why Y=26 (he created that puzzle ,not me).
