Write problem statement
What is the best method to Chunk balloons in poppit so that the least amount of balloons are left over after each game.

Assign Task1
The task assigned was to come up with methods of how I could go about chunking the game of poppit. Then apply these methods to the game. After each game, the number of balloons was recorded so that a comparison could be done about what was the best method. The goal is to play 20 to 30 games of poppit using one method that I came up with. Then repeat 20 to 30 games with another method and so forth until the total amount of games played was 200 games.

Compare actual work done to Task1
I only had time to play three methods that i came up with. Which resulted in only 80 games of poppit being played.

Week1 Narrative
This past week I came up with chunking methods that were used to eliminate the most balloons in the game of poppit. These methods are detailed hereto the right.:. The method that worked the best was method three. My average end game result was 13.49 balloons left over. All numerical calculations can be seen here:.
