text:
99 Variations on a Proof is a mathematics book by Philip Ording, in which he proves the same result in 99 different ways. Ording takes an example of a cubic equation, and shows that its solutions are x = 1 and x = 4 using a different method in each chapter. The structure of the book was inspired by Oulipo co-founder Raymond Queneau's Exercises de style (1947). The book was published in 2019 by Princeton University Press.
