- REU Puzzle:
- Puzzle Solution:
For any letter #, let f(#) be the position of # in the alphabet (ie f('a') = 1, f('b') = 2, etc). If a word w has an odd number of letters with middle letter #, let g(w) = f(#). If w has an even number of letters, with middle letters #1 and #2, let g(w) = [f(#1) + f(#2)]/2. Embed a name into 2-dimensional Euclidean space as follows: x-coordinate = g(first name) y-coordinate = g(last name) Any two points within distance 4 are then connected in the graph. Mentors are simply connected to the students they supervised.
