Euler SquareA square Array made by combining objects of two types such that the first and second elements form LatinSquares. Euler squares are also known as Graeco-Latin Squares,Graeco-Roman Squares, or Latin-Graeco Squares. For many years,Euler squares were known to exist for , 4, and for every Odd except . Euler's Graeco-Roman SquaresConjecture maintained that there do not exist Euler squares of order for , 2, .... However, such squares werefound to exist in 1959, refuting the Conjecture.
