Description
A Smarandache notion is an element of an ill-defined set, sometimes being almost an accident oflabeling. However, that takes nothing away from the interest and excitement that can be generated by exploring the consequences of such a problem It is a well-known cliche among writers that the best novels are those where the author does not know what is going to happen until that point in the story is actually reached. That statement also holds for some of these problems. In mathematics, one often does not know what the consequences of a statement are. Cnlike a novel however, there are no complete plot resolutions in mathematics as there are no villains to rub out. As the French emphatically say in another context, "Vive la difference'"
