Since the Knight’s Atari editors, and a number of its contributors, have a few doctorates in mathematics between them, it is probably fitting that we increase the amount of mathematics featured on Knight’s Atari – especially if we’re still trotting out the “editor of an award-winning publication featuring mathematical puzzles” waffle in job applications. To that end, we will attempt to include a little mathematics on a regular basis. Nothing too academic – just stuff which might crop up in everyday life.
