Case files 10.4 is showing the Pythagorean theorem where a squared + b squared = c squared (in this case 52). I believe what they are trying to say because ‘a’ is on the left and a squared = 36 and ‘b’ is on the right and b squared = 16, is that thats how the chunks work. If you look when you split the text into chunks of 4 the first half (left side) of the chunk, there are 36 unique pairs (a squared) and in the second half (right side) there are 16 unique pairs (b squared). So far everything the case files has shown I’ve known before – they are not helpful. However I will not say how but I found a way to make the text start with ‘report’, which I believe is correct as case files 10.2 hints at the message beginning with it – and to be honest, if it is correct, then my main problem this whole time has been overcomplicating things.
