(Fonte da imagem: Reprodução/The Telegraph) De acordo com o The Telegraph, o matemático finlandês Arto Inkala criou o jogo de sudoku mais difícil do mundo, indicado apenas para as mentes mais privilegiadas. Tanto que, em uma escala de dificuldade variando de 1 a 5 estrelas, o quebra-cabeça de Inkala bateria a marca de 11!

Segundo a publicação, o matemático levou três meses para criar o passatempo, utilizando para isso um software que ele mesmo desenvolveu. O sudoku é um popular jogo numérico, baseado na colocação lógica de algarismos em uma tabela de 9 x 9 espaços. Entretanto, de acordo com Inkala, em seu desafio o número de deduções que os jogadores devem fazer para alocar os números é muito maior.

O matemático afirma que, para finalizar o quebra-cabeça, os jogadores devem examinar todas as opções possíveis e imagináveis, tendo, em algumas jogadas, que considerar até 10 alocações numéricas que serão realizadas adiante. Fonte: The Telegraph. 82 Clever and Creative Fred & Friends Products.

I'm sure you've come across Fred & Friend products before at your local indie store and might not have even known it. Last weekend I was cruising around town and stopped at an indie store only to find one whole corner of the place dedicated to Fred & Friend products. It was heavenly. I stood there for probably more than a half hour laughing and checking out all their cool stuff. A lot of creativity goes into the making of these products, and I think part of that cleverness is shown in the name of the product and the slogan. It's really a hoot flipping through their catalog and I often find myself posing the question: "How in heavens name did they think of that? ". Check out this collection I compiled for you guys today and you'll probably find yourself asking the same question.
