Constructor's Note
On March 14th the math world celebrates Pi Day. Like any good religion, splinter sects develop. There are those of us who argue the true high holiday is June 28th: https://tauday.com. This cross number is in observance.

    Yay! I was craving another one of these number crosswords. Got stuck on 21a, which I thought should be 38 (13x3-1), not sure if I’m parsing something wrong or if that’s a mistake). Happy Tau Day to those who celebrate 🎉

      You are correct regarding the error on 21A. I’ve put in a quick fix.

      Very clever! And a happy Tau Day to you.
      Two minor issues came up (though I confess I didn’t work out all of the numerical clues). In 21A the current clue would be 38 (3 • 13 – 1) not 68.
      Also, the clue for 1A didn’t make sense to me — the atomic number of mercury is 80 (in base 10) but 628 in base 36 would be equivalent to 296 in base 10. (If I solve the quadratic I don’t think there’s an integer base that works either.) What am I missing? That said, it was clear from the theme and title.

        For 1A, the conversion is from 628 in base 10 to base 36, which uses numerals 0-9 and letters A-Z for its digits. 628 (base 10) is written HG in base 36 (atomic symbol, not number, of mercury).

          ✅ This is correct.

            Aha, thanks so much for explaining!

          Nice crossnumber! Two issues though: 21A seems to have the wrong clue right now.
          And shouldn't 12A be 2PI? 😜
          • SamuRai constructor · 2024-06-27T16:56:43.836Z
            I recently changed 21A to be ((13A*5)-13A)/4 which simplifies to 13A which is the same value as 21A.
            • SamuRai constructor · 2024-06-27T16:58:52.574Z
              For 12A I had that as a Schrödinger answer but had to remove it to make another edit an forgot to add it back in, so yes.

              Very fun! I thought it was spelled Tal 😂

                I'm real confused about 3A... 31+79 doesn't equal 90. Am I missing something?
                • SamuRai constructor · 2024-06-28T10:13:07.910Z
                  You are correct. That’s just a math fail on my part.
