has been studied by numerous mathematicians for many years and by various methods [1], [2]. We recently conducted a series of computer searches using the CDC 6600 to identify the sets of parameters k, m, n for which solutions exist and to find the least solutions for certain sets. This paper outlines the results of the computation, notes some previously published results, and concludes with a table showing, for various values of k and m, the least n for which a solution to (1) is known. We restrict our attention to fc < 10. We assume that the Xi and y¡ are positive integers and x, ^ y¡. We do not distinguish between solutions which differ only in that the aor y¡ are rearranged. We will refer to (1) as (fc. m. n) and say that a primitive solution to (fc. m. n) is one in which no integer > 1 divides all the numbers xi, Xi, • • •, xm, yi, ?/2, • • •, yn. Putting
