Lara C 2013-20114 The purpose of this experiment was to see which variables affected the time of solving 4x4 Sudoku puzzles. The Frontal Lobes are the part of your brain used in experiments like this, because it controls problem-solving. First a person was given a Sudoku puzzle and had to solve it while being timed, then they would have different variables they had to do (ex. Listening to music) and either before or during (depending on the variable) and had to solve another Sudoku puzzle, also being timed. The results were that meditating before doing Sudoku puzzles the time improved, making it less. This happened because the mind was clear and focused, which helped a lot.
 * THE STUDY OF SUDOKU PUZZLE SOLVING TIME WITH DIFFERENT VARIABLES**
 * ABSTRACT**

One thing that could be an improvement in this experiment in the future, is to make the experiments a bit more serious. Another thing, was to make the difference bigger when using different amount of burpees. A future experiment, could be to use different flavors of candy, not just different flavors of gum. Another could be one where you do all the experiments comparing different types of puzzles (ex. crossword puzzles, hangman, etc.)
