21st Century Authors: Multi-platform approaches to interactive storytelling   21st Century Authors: Multi-platform approaches to interactive storytelling Keywords: narrative, interactive, storytelling, game, author Abstract: The idea that games may contain story elements is a hotly debated topic between ludologists and narratologists. For those in disciplines rooted in more traditional storytelling, the outcome of the game studies debate is largely irrelevant. Story exists where the author believes it exists, at least from a practitioner's standpoint.

Dan Sloughter (Furman University) The Rhind Papyrus September 13, 2006 3 / 14I Note: this follows from
45×53 = (1+4+8+32)×53 = 1×53+4×53+8×53+32×53.
Example: multiplication
I Ahmes would compute 45×53 = 2385 as follows:
\ 1 53
2 106
\ 4 212
\ 8 424
16 848
\ 32 1696
Total 45 2385
