Comp. 63 (1994), 415-419. See also B39 in Guy, Unsolved Problems In Number Theory. | |

| Apr 11, 2019 at 6:37 | comment | added | Gerry Myerson | @user, it is a well-known problem. Since we seldom publish our failures, it is hard to know how many experts may have seriously tried but failed to settle it. | |
