Arrange any n integers around a circle. The following procedure can be used to obtain another circle of n integers. For each adjacent pair of the first integers, form the absolute value of their difference and place it between them; then remove the original numbers. This procedure can be repeated over and over. When n = 4 this always leads eventually to a circle of zeros. On the other hand when n = 3, unless the original numbers are equal, this never happens. We treat below the general case and related problems, using for convenience a slightly different formulation. Surprisingly there is enough structure to lead to some interesting mathematics.
