You know word searches? Where there's a rectangular block of letters and a list of words hidden in that block, with words going horizontally, vertically, or diagonally?

Today's Foxtrot comic has a numerical word search that Jason designed—a rectangular block of digits and a list of calculations producing numbers you have to find among the digits.

(The link goes to the Post Comment page, since there are solutions posted in the comments.)

Enjoy!

I saw that one in the paper this morning and was really tempted to do it, but I never got as far as calc and wouldn't have been able to get the last three. So since I was doomed to fail anyway, I didn't try. But it sure was amusing.
