Here in one convenient list are links to various resources connected to the famous story about young Gauss and the summation of an arithmetic series:
- my American Scientist column from May–June 2006
- the same column in PDF format
- the collection of tellings and retellings
- a bibliography
- a chronological table summarizing all versions of the story known to me
- a bit-player posting, focusing on computer implementation of the summation problem
- a bit-player update
- yet another bit-player update
- slides from my talk at Frostburg State University 1 April 2011
Enjoy!
