The Four Numbers Game is a mathematical game, as taught by Dr. Paul Sally, Prof. of Mathematics at the University of Chicago. To play this game, draw a square and put a number at each corner, thus:

5___9
|   |
|   |
|   |
7___13

Now form a new square based on the difference between each the values at the ends of each side. Example:

5_4_9
|   |
2   4
|   |
7_6_13

This gives a new square, which I'll rotate anticlockwise 45 degrees.

4___4
|   |
|   |
|   |
2___6

This in turn gives

0___2
|   |
|   |
|   |
2___4

Then

2___2
|   |
|   |
|   |
2___2

Then

0___0
|   |
|   |
|   |
0___0

At this point, the game is over.

Codes for geting any four given numbers:

 
 Sub FourNumbers(ByRef steps As String, ByRef count As Long, ParamArray s())
Dim temp As String, tempcount As Long
count = 1
If s(0) & s(1) & s(2) & s(3) = "0000" Then steps = Join(s, ","): Exit Sub
FourNumbers temp, tempcount, Abs(s(0) - s(1)), Abs(s(1) - s(2)), Abs(s(2) - s(3)), Abs(s(3) - s(0))
steps = Join(s, ",") & vbCrLf & temp
count = tempcount + 1
End Sub
Sub Getit()
Dim steps As String, count As Long
FourNumbers steps, count, [exp(1)], [pi()], 1, 0
Debug.Print "Count=" & count & vbCrLf & String(50, "-") & vbCrLf & steps
FourNumbers steps, count, 149, 274, 504, 927
Debug.Print "Count=" & count & vbCrLf & String(50, "-") & vbCrLf & steps
End Sub
 

It returns:

Count=5
