This book was released on 2024-07-03 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 【Excerpt from Introduction】 This book explains how to align Rubik's Cube. Based on how to align Rubik's Cube, it also explains how to align Rubik's Revenge and Rubik's Professor. The "Rubik's Cube Alignment" described in this manual is different from the "Rubik's Cube Official Website." Please note that it cannot be used as supplementary material for the "Rubik's Cube Official Website." The procedure for aligning a Rubik's Cube explained in this manual can be used directly for Rubik's Revenge. Similarly, the procedure for aligning a Rubik's Revenge can be used directly for a Rubik's Professor. If you master the procedure for aligning a Rubik's Cube and the procedure for aligning a Rubik's Revenge, you can align a Rubik's Professor. For these reasons, this book focuses on how to align a Rubik's Cube and Rubik's Revenge. If you suddenly refer to how to align a Rubik's Revenge or Rubik's Professor, you will not be able to align them. You need to learn the contents in order: Rubik's Cube → Rubik's Revenge → Rubik's Professor. I hope this book will help you get started with Rubik's Cube. 【Table of Contents】 Introduction Structure of this book / Description of the header information --- Rubik's Cube--- STEP 0 Preparation STEP 1 Align one face.

Download or read book The Science of Expertise written by David Z. Hambrick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering the broadest review of psychological perspectives on human expertise to date, this volume covers behavioral, computational, neural, and genetic approaches to understanding complex skill. The chapters show how performance in music, the arts, sports, games, medicine, and other domains reflects basic traits such as personality and intelligence, as well as knowledge and skills acquired through training. In doing so, this book moves the field of expertise beyond the duality of "nature vs. nurture" toward an integrative understanding of complex skill. This book is an invaluable resource for researchers and students interested in expertise, and for professionals seeking current reviews of psychological research on expertise.

Download or read book The Zen of Magic Squares Circles and Stars written by Clifford A. Pickover and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity's love affair with mathematics and mysticism reached a critical juncture, legend has it, on the back of a turtle in ancient China. As Clifford Pickover briefly recounts in this enthralling book, the most comprehensive in decades on magic squares, Emperor Yu was supposedly strolling along the Yellow River one day around 2200 B.C. when he spotted the creature: its shell had a series of dots within squares. To Yu's amazement, each row of squares contained fifteen dots, as did the columns and diagonals. When he added any two cells opposite along a line through the center square, like 2 and 8, he always arrived at 10. The turtle, unwitting inspirer of the ''Yu'' square, went on to a life of courtly comfort and fame. Pickover explains why Chinese emperors, Babylonian astrologer-priests, prehistoric cave people in France, and ancient Mayans of the Yucatan were convinced that magic squares--arrays filled with numbers or letters in certain arrangements--held the secret of the universe. Since the dawn of civilization, he writes, humans have invoked such patterns to ward off evil and bring good fortune. Yet who would have guessed that in the twenty-first century, mathematicians would be studying magic squares so immense and in so many dimensions that the objects defy ordinary human contemplation and visualization? Readers are treated to a colorful history of magic squares and similar structures, their construction, and classification along with a remarkable variety of newly discovered objects ranging from ornate inlaid magic cubes to hypercubes. Illustrated examples occur throughout, with some patterns from the author's own experiments. The tesseracts, circles, spheres, and stars that he presents perfectly convey the age-old devotion of the math-minded to this Zenlike quest. Number lovers, puzzle aficionados, and math enthusiasts will treasure this rich and lively encyclopedia of one of the few areas of mathematics where the contributions of even nonspecialists count.
Download or read book Barrycades and Septoku Papers in Honor of Martin Gardner and Tom Rodgers written by Thane Plambeck and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gathering 4 Gardner is a biannual conference founded—and for many years organized—by Tom Rodgers to celebrate the spirit of Martin Gardner. While primarily concerned with recreational mathematics, most of Gardner's intellectual interests are featured, including magic, literature, philosophy, puzzles, art, and rationality. Gardner's writing inspired several generations of mathematicians by introducing us to the joy of discovery and exploration, and the Gathering's aim is to continue that tradition of inspiration. This volume, a tribute to Rodgers and Gardner, consists of papers originally presented at the Gathering 4 Gardner meetings. Recreational mathematics is strongly prominent with contributions from Neil Sloane, Richard Guy, Solomon Golomb, Barry Cipra, Erik Demaine, and many others. There are games and puzzles, including new Nim-like games, chess puzzles, coin weighings, coin flippings, and contributions that combine art and puzzles or magic and puzzles. Two historical articles present the stories of combinatorial game theory and the search for God's number for Rubik's Cube. Anyone who finds pleasure in clever and intriguing intellectual puzzles will find much to enjoy in Barrycades and Septoku.
