Set

Set is a fun mathematical game that builds visual skills. For this assignment, I played set for about 3 full weeks and kept a log of my daily times. Then I created an excel sheet to document my times, calculated my weekly averages, and my overall average. My time decreased as I continued to play and I gained helpful strategies to organize the game. I then created a visually appelaing page to display my times and graphed the data. Below is my completed assignment.

I improved over the course of these few weeks playing set. Although there were a few spots that my time jumped up, overall my time decreased as I continued to play. As I played more and more, I gained some strategies. I would look at the red’s, then the purple’s, then the greens. And then I would go through by number, looking at the one’s, the two’s, and then the three’s. Then I would look for groups that had one, two, and three. This strategy helped me to play in an organized manner and it helped me find all the possibilities without missing one.
 * Reflections and Strategies**

An average is not an exact measurement. It is the sum of many numbers divided by the number of data pieces and if you average a group of averages then your numbers get less and less precise.
 * Averaging averages is very dangerous!**
