New puzzle game!

Posted by Paul Hunter Tuesday 17 March 2026, 10:09:43 AM.

Hi everyone,

In preparation for this week's content (Graph Theory) I have added a new game to the Puzzle Games section: Abstract

This game was developed by Priya Leedman as part of her Honours project, with the overall goal of helping introduce some of the concepts of this topic in a fun & engaging manner. In the coming weeks, she'll be looking for feedback on the game - so it would be really great if you could give it a play (and while you're at it, why not have a look at some of the other Puzzle Games we have, especially now that we have covered some of the relevant topics...)

I think the game is really beautiful - a lot of the artwork was done by Priya herself - and gets surprisingly challenging when you get to some of the later levels...

Enjoy!

Paul

Formatif task W4P2

Hi all,

A quick clarification on the current formatif tasks.

For W4P2 you only need to make a submission for part (a). Parts (b) and (c) are to be discussed and assessed in person in the tutorial . You may prepare for these questions, but you should not make any preliminary submission.

Equivalence relations recording tonight

Posted by Paul Hunter Thursday 05 March 2026, 04:32:17 PM.

Hi all,

Unfortunately Jiaojiao was not able to get through the lecture content on Equivalence Relations in today's lecture.

Because this content is needed for the W3 formatif tasks, I will be making an online recording of the content tonight (Thu) at 8:30pm . This recording will be uploaded to Lecture Recordings shortly after it finishes.

As before, you are welcome to attend and ask questions - I will post a link to the recording closer to the time.

Paul
