Five out of five stars
Pascal’s
triangle has two characteristics that make it ideal for mathematical operations
that are both educational and entertaining. There is essentially an endless
supply of features to study and it is very easy to understand. Many of the
properties can be understood by children in the early years of elementary
school, all they need to know is how to add.
This book
contains a very useful set of demonstrations of the properties of Pascal’s
triangle that instructors can use. They are all very well explained and
demonstrate how the principles can be put forward to the students. This is a
resource that all math teachers from elementary school through college will find
useful when covering the area of basic number theory.
