Simon’s Random Number Generator
This one’s back from mid-October, forgot to post here. Simon created a random number generator that generates a frequency, and then picks it back up. Then, it calculates the error … Continue reading Simon’s Random Number Generator
Vanishing Letters
Simon’s way to celebrate Helloween: a little demo about how red marker reflects red LED light and becomes invisible. A nice trick in the dark! We also had so much … Continue reading Vanishing Letters
Simon’s Cycle Formula
During Chinese lesson yesterday, Simon came up with what he calls his “Cycle formula” to calculate all the permutations of placing n numbers in a cyclical order (like on a … Continue reading Simon’s Cycle Formula
