[Maths-Education] Re: Maths on the Buses (York, June 2017, as part of York Festival of Ideas; co-sponsored by York Bus Forum)

Good idea Charlie. Thanks.

Does anyone have any favourite nonstandard Sudoku like thingies that have
specific mathematical messages?

I actually quite like the square which has numbers on the cell boundaries
derived from the unknown cell entries, and you have to work out the
entries. (What is it called pls?)

I have never followed it up, but there must be some duality relationship
between the two sets.
