Recently, I updated of my Puzzlebook, which is now freely available at https://matmod.ch/lpl/doc/puzzlebook.pdf. A hard copy is also available at lulu.com.
The book is the result of my research for many years at my university of Fribourg in Switzerland. The digital version is free, because I already got my salary for my research done and I am grateful for that.
This book is a comprehensive guide to mathematical modeling. It uses more than 140 puzzles as ‘‘case studies’’ and represents them as mathematical models. The models are coded in the computer language LPL and most of them can be solved directly over the Internet.
Game-lovers will discover new and original aspects of their favorite pastime and teachers in Mathematics will be amazed how playful and diverting mathematical modeling can be.
The goal is to encourage the use of such puzzles in an educational context in order to improve and develop mathematical modeling skills. It can be used as a self-study or in classes.
