The Linear Algebra Game
- Lean Seminar

Invited Talk
Rutgers,
Abstract: We present our work on the Linear Algebra Game. The game is a variation of the Natural Number Game developed by Kevin Buzzard, Mohammad Pedramfar. We developed the game with two goals: first, to provide a fun and accessible introduction to Lean; and second, to support students developing proof-writing skills in a linear algebra course. We will demonstrate the game; and discuss some of the challenges that arose in the project, and how they were addressed. (The project was part of the Summer 2023 Math+ Program for collaborative student research at Duke University.)
