Puzzle
Using exactly $4$ instances of the number $4$, the task is to write an expression for $0$, using whatever arithmetical operations you consider necessary.
Solution
Let $\map {e_n} m$ be an expression which uses $n$ instances of $4$ to make $m$.
Then we have:
- $0 = \map {e_2} m - \map {e_2} m$
where $m \in \N$ is arbitrary.
