Required Functions

You are required to write and use the following three functions in your submission:

$$ def populateSquare$($size$)$: this function takes an integer representing the

size of the square, asks the user to enter the integer values to populate the square

and it returns the square. To simulate the square, we will use a list of lists: this is a

list in which each element is another list. Each value entered by the user can only

appear one single time in the square $($so$,$ no repeated values$)$

$$ def printSquare$($square$)$: this function takes the filled square $($so the list

of lists$)$ and displays it into the screen, one row per line. This function does not

return anything.

$$ def isMagicSquare$($square$)$: this function takes the filled square $($so the list

of lists$)$ and returns a Boolean that indicates whether or not the square is magic

square as per the rules explained above.

Note: while solving this problem, you may find the need to create one or more helper

functions $($for example to validate user input$).$ That is fine and you can add those

functions to your program.
