Extensions
Possible extensions include:
Some problems/limitations we have faced:
- Creation of a more efficient software with our mathematical findings to solve the puzzle quicker.
- Experimentation on other platonic solids, namely the dodecahedron.
- Gathering of more data to strengthen proofs and form more strategies
Some problems/limitations we have faced:
- Unable to come up with and engineer a more efficient algorithm given our current programming capabilities
- There were no tests carried out to verify if people understood our strategies we have developed and if they were able to apply them in solving the puzzle
- We have not proven that the results obtained for the tetrahedron definitely extends to the icosahedron.
- Combinatorics involved in this project did not factor in orientation and the type of pieces given to the player when starting with the Icosoku puzzle
