Keep your brain active and think about it:
if
2 + 3 = 10
7 + 2 = 63
6 + 5 = 66
8 + 4 = 96
Then:
9 + 7 = ????

9+7 = 144 ?

 

[Kent Hostetler]

yup, i get 144 too.

(as confirmation, 10 + 8 = 180)

 

[danplc]

(9+7)* 9 = 144.

This is why I changed majors in college from math to something else...gives me a headache

The answer is the sum of the two numbers multiplied by the first number. Post #4 expresses it mathematically. (x + y) * x = z

Here's another example of overloading the + operator
If
2 + 3 = 1
7 + 2 = 25
6 + 5 = 1
8 + 4 = 16
Then:
9 + 7 = ????

9 + 7 = 4 ?

Yep, z=(x-y)*(x-y)
