I’m a Scandahoovian, and I mourn the day IHOP dropped their Swedish crepes with lingonberry butter. Granted they didn’t hold a candle to Al Johnson’s, but hey I was happy with what I could get.
If you don’t want to walk topology, let’s look at the passage of a 2D maze as a polygon with one or more gaps at the perimeter. As long as you trace the perimeter, any wankering placed in the interior is irrelevant. That is the true beauty of the solution.
Observing tolopogy is not stating a false premise. If you follow a wall from the entrance you will always reach an exit, even if it’s the starting point. If the maze is topologically a loop from the entrance, then no matter how many other “entrances” there are you will not connect with them.
Yes, and read my reply to RLG. No matter how you slice it, just as if you confine the trisection problem to compass and straight edge, the 2D maze must follow the topological rule.
Dethany would like this one.
