This eternity 2 game. One for the mathematicians.

</p>

<font size="2">The way I see it is - There are 256 squares. So the first calculation, for therotational position of each square,is 4 to the power of 256. Which is pretty big.</font></p>

<font size="2">Then you have to take into consideration that any square could be in any position on the board so I reckon you have to go 256 to the power of 256.</font></p>

<font size="2">So do the permutations total (4 to the power of 256) + (256 to the power of 256) or 4 to the power of 256 to the power of 256 to the power of 256?</font></p>

<font size="2">And how do I &quot;to the power of&quot; properly with this keyboard.</font></p>

 

256^256

 

By the way....

<font size="2">...this is 4 to the power of 52 -</font></p>
