Do you have a link to (or can you put here) that "numbers in boxes" problem?

  I'm not them, but I think it's a variation of the subset-sum problem If we modify the question to be "sum to 100" (to just seriously reduce the number of example boxes required) then given: | 50 | 20 | 24 | | 7 | 5 | 1 | | 51 | 51 | 51 | the solution would be | [50] | [20] | [24] | | 7 | [ 5] | [ 1] | | 51 | 51 | 51 | | right | down | win | X | right | up | X | X | X

    Correct. That but for 1000. You can build your own with any number of online tools. I don't have a link because it's part of a lesson plan set behind a payment on teachers pay teachers.

      Do you have a link to any of those online tools that can be used to generate a puzzle of equivalent complexity to the one that you've tested on?

        The sum doesn’t even have to be 1000, just create a grid of random numbers, create a random path and find the sum. It’s an equivalent problem.
