Scientists uncover Feynman’s formula for finding best holiday restaurant

Late physicist turned issue of when to stop searching for a better place to eat into mathematical problem When it comes to exploring a new city, it can be tricky to know when to stop searching for a different restaurant to try every night, or to visit the first place you love on repeat. Now researchers have found that the late physicist and Nobel laureate Richard Feynman devised a mathematical equation that can tackle the conundrum – at least when the range of options is known – and they believe the approach is similar to tactics people use intuitively.
