Avoidant Kings
I had a great time last week lecturing at Math League to a wonderful audience of gifted middle school kids. As a warm-up, I gave them this easy puzzle when I introduced the king from chess. I figured some might appreciate an easier puzzle here as well. Unlike some chess variant puzzles, you do not have to have one king in each row and column. Just place one king in every cage so that no two attack each other. I'm including two of the handouts from my Math League talk below.
