I've never used this before but i'm having trouble with this.

Create a 3x3 Magic Square that uses integers from -10 to -2.

By the way, this is a weird magic square since diagonals don't need to match the common sum

I don't know how to create a magic square and would very much appreaciate anyone's help. Thank You!

I found this:

-4 -4 -2

-4 -2 -4

-2 -4 -4

But I don't know if this counts

So, a classic magic square is

8 1 6
3 5 7
4 9 2

If you subtract 11 from every number in this solution, you get:

-3 -10 -5
-8 -6 -4
-7 -2 -9

Hope this was helpful!
