PUZZLES
1) What is the simplest way to make a hypercube (aka a tesseract)?
[The answers to August’s puzzles were supplied in the August issue. Here is the answer to this month’s puzzle.]
1) Start with the simplest object, ie a point. Connect two points to make a line, two lines to make a square and two squares to make a cube. Now comes the tricky part: place one cube above another and connect the cubes by adding six additional cubes, connecting the faces of the two original cubes. Yes this is difficult to draw, but it’s simple and real. [from Lisa Randall’s description in Warped Passages]
