Alice’s Adventures in Algebra: Wonderland Solved

mg20427391.600-1_300

It’s break and time to wander around a bit. Just came across this article in the New Scientist. Here is the “mathematical analysis” of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (aka mathematician Charles Dodgson). DPhil candidate, Melanie Bayley, offers up some mathematical explanations of those weird adventures that Alice has. Take a look-see: http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20427391.600-alices-adventures-in-algebra-wonderland-solved.html?full=true

It’s kinda fun!
