- W1710960066 abstract "In recent years, it has become recognized that recreational mathematics is an interesting branch of mathematics with a long and fascinating history, revealing much about mathematics and popular culture. Recreational problems are scattered through the mathematical literature from the beginnings of recorded mathematics. The first general work to include a number of mathematical puzzles is The Greek anthology , compiled by Metrodorus, which includes 44 simple problems. The first collection of mathematical recreations is the Propositiones ad acuendos juvenes , a manuscript reasonably attributed to Alcuin of York around 800, though it was also attributed to Bede. Some problems have several answers, but only one answer is given and there are no real explanations for any of the problems. Traditionally, books on mercantile arithmetic included a number of miscellaneous recreational problems, including simple divinations. The first large work devoted to recreational mathematics is another work of Luca Pacioli, his De Viribus Quantitatis , which is only now receiving the attention it deserves. There are many works which cover mathematical and physical recreations. The best known are those of Schwenter, Schott, Witgeest, Ozanam, Guyot, and Hooper." @default.
