Lights Out: Solving a Puzzle as a Paradigm for "Doing Mathematics"
Lights Out is a popular puzzle that is manufactured by Tiger Electronics. In this talk, I will not only solve the puzzle using some surprising mathematics, but I will also illustrate the process that mathematicians use to find and attack new problems.
Note:
Prof. Lotto was invited to speak by the Marist College Math Club. His talk will be accessible to students.
The Math Club will provide refreshments.
