BTW, I just noticed a ML bug.

        magic (2)

        ans =

             1     3
             4     2

There is no solution for "2".

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_square

Octave gives the appropriate error.

        magic (2)
        error: magic: N must be a positive integer not equal to 2
