I appear to have solved it,  too;  I can see the discussion thread, which is only open to those who've managed to do the problem correctly.  I see Roger posted a solution in that thread back in February 2006.  I've found a script dated 12/2/06 which must have worked at the time,  though I don't understand it right now!

With PE problems you often need to take care on rounding errors, with unintentional floats of what were integers in the smaller examples when you scale up the size and so on.  Problem 111 is only (!) for order 10^10,  so should be ok in 64 bits but might be problematic in 32.   However, my solution would have been reached in 32-bit J,  and I don't see any bovious forcing to type integer, so perhaps your difficulty lies
elsewhere.

I solved it in 2006 in J.  The answer provided by Project Euler is correct.

Has anyone solved problem 111? The web page says my answer is wrong, but I
have checked and double-checked and can find no error. Perhaps I have
misunderstood the problem. Just wanted to talk with someone about it th see
where I am messing up.

Thanks
