9-Block Stalagmite Solo is your opportunity to build up the combinatorial sample space of all the possible arrays of 3-by-3 squares, in which each square can either be green or blue. What is your strategy? In 9-Block Stalagmite, we discuss some strategies. Note that due to the large size of this sample space, it was not possible to fit it all in without requiring lots of scrolling up and down. However, this applet should allow you to figure out how to create many 9-blocks without repetition and without skipping any along the way. This skill will help you when you participate in the [last updated July 8, 2005]
