Puzzle 410. The largest magic square & primes... Anurag Sahay sent an email this week asking "What is the largest known magic square of consecutive primes ?" This was the matter of previous puzzles (3 & 68). In Puzzle 68 we reported two 9x9 magic square composed by consecutive primes (CP), by G. Abe & by A. Susuki.  Q1. Can you get a larger magic square of this type (CP)? BTW, in Puzzle 68 we reported a 99x99 magic square layered & composed only by (distinct?) primes (LDP), constructed by John L. Miller (can you check if these 99x99 primes are distinct primes?) Q2. Can you get a larger magic square of this type (LDP)?

All 9801 primes are distinct I sorted the list and checked no gap was zero in excel.
