🤯 OEIS really does have everything under the sun! 😂

And look, you found all the ones for 7 people!

Oooo... What are the others you found, if you want to share?

Oh interesting! I was wondering if there are irregular ones and was tempted to hunt down a coder somewhere to do a brute force search for me. XD. How are you finding these?

That was my guess for 7 too until Everett here broke the illusion. XD

Is there a website where I can read about Making Space? I'd love to learn more. ❤️

have to somehow teach the students to come up with their new original problem every time we run a Math Fair (which also means the adults have to know how to do it first...). I'd love to hear your ideas (and anyone else reading this convo, like @maria-naturalmath.bsky.social 😉)!

It's one of my long time dreams to figure out a sustainable way to run Math Fairs at scale with a constant stream of new problems. We'd have to have a global community of adult recreational math problem collectors/makers (like how a creative writing community supplies endless new stories), or we'd

problem pool, and also static (no new problems added regularly). There's the official website up there, and there's the list on the galileo website:

which resulted in visitors getting tired of the problems after 2 or 3 years (the students were new to them each year).

A Math Fair is a non-competitive problem solving event that gives teachers an opportunity to have their students do problem solving with a particular goal…
