---------- is this (also) easy to do using Lisp or Python???
I threw this code together in about two minutes:
lo = 50
hi = 500
i = (lo + hi) // 2
while True :
losum = sum(range(lo, i))
hisum = sum(range(i + 1, hi + 1))
print(i, losum, hisum)
if losum == hisum :
break
if losum > hisum :
i = i - 1
else :
i = i + 1
#end if
#end while
and it seems there is no actual solution: it keeps oscillating between 355
and 356.
