I think I'd do it like this: #10#.(#~ 36=*/@|:) 1+(6#3)#:i.3^6 90 In other words, generate all 729 possibilities as lists of digits and keep those whose product is 36. That said, technically we don't actually need to combine them into single numbers: #(#~ 36=*/@|:) 1+(6#3)#:i.3^6 90 Than

Ah! It's mildly annoying to only see oneself and others,  such as you, identified only as Programming Forum!  There doesn't seem to be any get-around.  I used to be me some years ago,  but am now anonymised! Mike On 09/04/2018 09:35, 'Jon Hough' via Programming wrote: Hi Mike, Regarding

It is also possible to do this combinatorially. If allowed digits are 1,2,3, and we have six slots to use, then there are a total of 3^6 = 729 arrangements. So we just need to count all arrangements that have 3 or more consecutive digits that are the same. Consider the slots as such _ _ _ _ _
