Testing the Nonlinear Integer Programming Solver with Moessner's 6.1.20 Equation, Revised Edition

Jsun Yui Wong

The computer program listed below seeks to solve the following Moessner (1959) 6.1.20 Diophantine equation from Weisstein [14].

X(1) ^ 6 + X(2) ^ 6 + X(3) ^ 6 + X(4) ^ 6 + X(5) ^ 6 + X(6) ^ 6 + X(7) ^ 6 + X(8) ^ 6 + X(9) ^ 6 + X(10) ^ 6 + X(11) ^ 6 + X(12) ^ 6 + X(13) ^ 6 + X(14) ^ 6 + X(15) ^ 6 + X(16) ^ 6 + X(17) ^ 6 + X(18) ^ 6 + X(19) ^ 6 + X(20) ^ 6   =  X(21) ^ 6

While line 177 through line 181 of the preceding paper are as follows:

        177 FOR JJ11 = 1 TO 19

            178 FOR JN = JJ11 + 1 TO 20

                179 IF X(JJ11) = X(JN) THEN 1670

            180 NEXT JN

        181 NEXT JJ11

line 189 through line 193 of the present paper are as follows:

 189 FOR JJ11 = 1 TO 19

            190 FOR JN = JJ11 + 1 TO 20

                191 IF X(JJ11) = X(JN) THEN 1670

            192 NEXT JN

        193 NEXT JJ11

The following computer program uses qb64v1000-win [12, 16]. One notes line 88 below, which is 88 FOR JJJJ = -32000 TO 32000 STEP .1.

This computer program was run with qb64v1000-win [12, 16]. Copied by hand from the screen, the computer program’s complete output through
JJJJ=   -29025.70000004328 is shown below:

8      28      34      38
42      36      39      35
32      15      48      7
18      33     6      30
21      23      27      25
57         0         -29025.70000004328

Above there is no rounding by hand; it is just straight copying by hand from the screen.

On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM and with qb64v1000-win [12, 16], the wall-clock time for obtaining the output through JJJJ=   -29025.70000004328 was 22 minutes.
