The computer program below seeks to solve simultaneously the system of seventeen Diophantine equations and ten variables taken from page 11381 of Abraham, Sanyal, and Sanglikar [1], from page 252 of Waldschmidt [4], and from page 740, page 744, and page 745 of Perez, Amaya, and Correa [3]. These simultaneous equations are as follows:
X(1)^15 + X(2)^15 = 1088090731
X(2)^14 + X(9)^14 = 268451840
X(1)^13 + X(3)^13 = 1222297448
X(3)^11 + X(10)^11 = 411625181
X(3)^12 + X(8)^12 = 244144721
1+ 5^X(5) = 3^X(6) +3^X(7)
1+3^X(8) = (2^X(5) )*(5 ^X(6))
X(8)^2 +X(5)^2 +X(6)^2 = 3*X(8)*X(5)*X(6)
X(1) -X(3)+2* X(5) -X(7)-X(9) =-3
X(2)+(2* X(4))^2 -6* X(6)- X(8)+2* X(10) = 8
X(1) -3* X(2)+4* X(4) +X(6)-6*X(7)+ X(8)-2*X(9) =-16
5* X(1)+2* X(2)-8* X(4)-3* X(5)+4* X(6)+X(7)-X(9) =23
2* X(1) +(X(2)+3* X(4))^3 + (5*X(7))^2-6* X(8)+X(9)-9* X(10) =31
(2* X(1) + X(2))^2+3*X(3)-10* X(5)-( X(6)+3*X(7))^3- X(8)-6*X(9) =27
3* X(1) +2* X(2)-5*X(3)- X(4)^4-2* X(5) + X(6)+4*X(7)-10* X(8)+8*X(9) = -9
X(1) ^2-2*(X(2)+ X(4))^3 + X(5)-3* X(6)-X(7)+4*X(9) +15* X(10) = -24
3* X(1) -(2* X(2))^2+10*X(3)-9* X(4)+3* X(5) + X(6)-2*X(7)- 8* X(8)+12*X(9)-5* X(10) = -25
The second equation through the fifth equation shown above are modifications of four equations on page 11381 of Abraham, Sanyal, and Sanglikar [1, Table 2]. The sixth equation, 1+ 5^X(5) = 3^X(6) +3^X(7), is a modification of 1+ 5^X(1) = 3^X(2) +3^X(3) from page 744 of Perez, Amaya, and Correa [3, Table 1]. The equation on page 740 of Perez, Amaya, and Correa [3] has been relabelled to become the seventh equation above, and the Markoff equation on page 252 of Waldschmidt [4] has been relabelled to become the eighth equation shown above.
Lines 210, 215, 222, 233, 244, and 441 are noteworthy.

On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM, and the IBM basica/D interpreter, version GW BASIC 3.11, the wall-clock time for obtaining the output through JJJJ=-31995 was two seconds.
