A New York Times best-selling mathematician reveals how math can take your game playing and puzzle solving to the next level Imagine entering a bingo parlor where one thousand cards are in play. "I'll bet that the winning card is horizontal instead of vertical," a man says. Should you take the bet? Or suppose you've reached Final Jeopardy with $7,000 to your opponents' $8,000 and $4,000. What should you wager? Or imagine you're at the blackjack table. The dealer's up card is a four, and you've been dealt a jack and a two. Should you hit or should you stand? In How to Win, New York Times best-selling mathematician Art Benjamin answers these questions and many more. Breaking down the mathematics of games and puzzles, he finds winning strategies, hidden paradoxes, and profound ideas. He shows us the best opening guesses and follow-up moves in Wordle, an easy way to solve a Rubik's Cube and almost any sudoku, and how to determine which games at the casino will let your money last the longest. And he reveals how the same math extends to everyday life, enabling us to transcend luck in whatever we do. Now that's a winning proposition.

Graph theory goes back several centuries and revolves around the study of graphs--mathematical structures showing relations between objects. With applications in biology, computer science, transportation science, and other areas, graph theory encompasses some of the most beautiful formulas in mathematics--and some of its most famous problems. The Fascinating World of Graph Theory explores the questions and puzzles that have been studied, and often solved, through graph theory. This book looks at graph theory's development and the vibrant individuals responsible for the field's growth. Introducing fundamental concepts, the authors explore a diverse plethora of classic problems such as the Lights Out Puzzle, and each chapter contains math exercises for readers to savor. An eye-opening journey into the world of graphs, The Fascinating World of Graph Theory offers exciting problem-solving possibilities for mathematics and beyond.
