Abstract: The focus of this paper is primarily on a problem: the principle of the extreme value under some special operations. After enumerating from the maximum sum to minimum and solving these cases, I found that the use of the two mathematical models enabled the derivation of the general form of the use of the two mathematical models enabled the derivation of the general form of the maximum and the minimum sum. This program looks into the principles of minimum and maximum sum, and the various patterns that come along with it. In order to further discuss this kind of problems, we set up other different conditions, solving them with two mathematical models and principle of sequence recursive relationship, induction proof, etc. We also extend all these problems to explore the generating functions of the maximum and the minimum sum with operating number m based on the parity of the number of papers. Finally, using computer generated software, we demonstrate the various sums of a particular state, along with coming up with a general rule for all states that can predict the maximum and the minimum sum through the usage of induction.
