Transformations
Magic squares can be easily transformed into other magic squares by reflections and rotations. But there are also other transformations, which generate different new magic squares.

But there are also other transformations that often generate new magic squares.
In this section, you can interactively perform many transformations, analyze the square or display the numbers of the square in another number system.
