There are two ways to solve this puzzle, digitally (using numbers, mathematical formulas) and spatially (seeing where things are in relation to other things, visual thinking). Bill Gates probably solved it digitally. Steve Jobs, I would imagine spatially. In Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain Betty Edwards quotes J.E. Bogen:
Parallel Ways of Knowing
- intellect · intuition
- convergent · divergent
- digital · analogic
- secondary · primary
- abstract · concrete
- directed · free
- propositional · imaginative
- analytic · relational
- lineal · nonlineal
- rational · intuitive
- sequential · multiple
- analytic · holistic
- objective · subjective
- successive · simultaneous
