This square is the same as his 8x8. The differences are starting the consecutive sequence in row one of square A in column five to produce half rows with half row totals and placing complimentary pairs in column one of square B in rows one and five, two and six, three and seven, and four and eight, repeating that pattern in rows nine to sixteen.
