LiteratureLiteratureLewis Carrol, author of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass, was a mathematician as well as a writer. He was a master at creating puzzles and making connections between mathematics and literature. Following is an example of some of his statements.
Babies are illogical. Nobody is despised who can manage a crocodile. Illogical persons are despised.
The conclusion I the last statement may seem confusing. Let’s rewrite each statement in “if – then” form to help us to make the progression of the logic easier to understand.
