Proposed changes to North Carolina's math standards would shake up requirements for upperclassmen in the state’s public high schools and emphasize real-world problem-solving in all grade levels. The ...

Abstract: This paper introduces a new discrete StarFish Optimization Algorithm (D-SFOA) to solve a complex discrete Symmetric Travelling Salesman Problem (STSP). The discrete SFOA algorithm is ...

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

It's highly recommended to recruit Aza before completing this quest. Aza's companion quest requires you to clear out the N-Ray Range anyway, so you can kill two birds with one stone. Acquire the N-Ray ...

Why the challenge of truly representative democracy is so complex. Moon Duchin, who leads the University of Chicago’s Data and Democracy Research Initiative, explores how math can help solve ...

They prove something far more profound: the universe is built on a type of understanding that exists beyond the reach of any algorithm. "It has been suggested that the universe could be simulated. If ...

The “Discrete Mathematics” quest in The Outer Worlds 2 comes with a hefty stack of obstacles, starting with its pickup point. You’ll have to avoid explosives, defeat invisible enemies, and solve a ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...
