The "Playful Side Of Math"

My teacher (Go Mrs. Lenfestey) ask me to read a column by Steven Strogatz expressing his views on math and it's two sides: the "Serious Side" and the "Playful Side" (Insert joke here). His definition of the "Serious Side" is the math we do everyday from basic addition and subtraction to things like figuring taxes. His definition on the "Playful Side" is different see he thinks of the "Playful Side" as when you try to find different ways to solve the same problem. What does all this mean all this "Playful Side" "Serious Side" stuff well it means MATH IS FUN SO DO AN ALGEBRA EQUATION.

Q.E.D. THAT
