Deep in the heart of the Hundred Acre Wood, learning math is a fun adventure. With Pooh, Tigger, and their friends leading the way, children are guided through seven engaging activities that teach beginning math skills. As kids accomplish each skill, they earn a fun reward they can use to build their very own gardens. Skills include counting, sorting, adding, and subtracting. Three levels of difficulty allow children to learn at their own pace. In Pooh's Pantry, kids practice counting by emptying the baskets in the right order.

There has been considerable interest recently in the subject of patterns in permutations and words, a new branch of combinatorics with its roots in the works of Rotem, Rogers, and Knuth in the 1970s. Consideration of the patterns in question has been extremely interesting from the combinatorial point of view, and it has proved to be a useful language in a variety of seemingly unrelated problems, including the theory of Kazhdan—Lusztig polynomials, singularities of Schubert varieties, interval orders, Chebyshev polynomials, models in statistical mechanics, and various sorting algorithms, including sorting stacks and sortable permutations.
