%This is a script to answer Problem 4 for Project Euler
%Find the difference between the sum of the squares of the first one hundred natural numbers and the square of the sum.

%Setup your variables
nums = [1:100];
squares = nums.^2;	%Square every number in the list nums
sumOfSquares = sum(squares);	%Get the sum of all the elements in the list squares
squareOfSums = sum(nums)^2;		%Get the sum of all the elements in the list nums and square the answer
value = abs(squareOfSums - sumOfSquares);	%Get the difference of the 2 numbers
%This could all be done on one line, but this is less confusing

%Print the value
value

%Cleanup your variables
clear nums;
clear squares;
clear sumOfSquares;
clear squareOfSums;
clear value;
