  2. How to Solve It - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Solve_It

    Pólya mentions that there are many reasonable ways to solve problems. [3] The skill at choosing an appropriate strategy is best learned by solving many problems. You will find choosing a strategy increasingly easy. A partial list of strategies is included: Guess and check [9] Make an orderly list [10] Eliminate possibilities [11] Use symmetry [12]

    The number of possible positions of the 24 puzzle is ⁠ 25! / 2 ⁠ ≈ 7.76 × 10 24, which is too many to calculate God's number feasibly using brute-force methods. In 2011, lower bounds of 152 single-tile moves or 41 multi-tile moves had been established, as well as upper bounds of 208 single-tile moves or 109 multi-tile moves.

  6. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    Because of this, different methods need to be used to solve BVPs. For example, the shooting method (and its variants) or global methods like finite differences, [3] Galerkin methods, [4] or collocation methods are appropriate for that class of problems. The Picard–Lindelöf theorem states that there is a unique solution, provided f is ...
