I bet it\'s really easy but I\'ve been looking at it for too long.

Oviously times- plus - divide - minus

But it need a four digit code.

Some sort of lateral thinking I guess is required.

Maybe something relating to the number of sides on each shape enclosed within the symbols?

Well I gave up and as suggested googled it

It isn\'t 4812 - sorry

if you want to persevere the first digit is \'0\'

It wasn\'t as obscure as I was expecting

0812 it is

number of sides

circle -no sides x square - four sides = 0
three sides + five sides = 8
thre div by three = 1
five - three = 2

If you really want to drive yourself mad - it\'s called

Endless Escape

Must be corners not sides - a circle has 1 side but no corners...

arguably a circle has an infinite number of sides  ;), some would say it has 2 sides, inside & outside.  All depends how you define \'side\'
