A young woman photographed two days after the British entered the camp; her face still bearing the scars of a terrible beating by the SS guards.

Mathematicians have finally figured out the three cubed numbers that add up to 42.

This has settled a problem that has been pondered for 65 years: namely, can each of the natural numbers below 100 be expressed as the sum of three cubes?
The problem, set in 1954, is x3+y3+z3=k. K is each of the numbers from 1 to 100; the question is, what are x, y, and z?
