The number devil started doing the problem in his head, but his face turned bright red again and swelled up like a balloon. Was

it because he was angry, Robert wondered, or because the problem was hard?
“Wait a second,” the number devil mumbled. “I can’t seem to come up with anything. You were right. It doesn’t work. How did you know?”

“I didn’t. You don’t think I’m crazy enough to try a problem like that do you? I was just guessing.”

“Guessing? Guessing is not allowed in Mathematics! Mathematics is an exact science!”

“But when you said that numbers don’t stop, that they go on till the cows come home, that was a guess, wasn’t it?”

“How dare you? What are you, anyway? A beginner! A rank amateur! And you want to teach me my trade?”

—The Number Devil,
Hans Magnus Enzenberger

What does manoush zomorodi think happens to our brains when we are bored 
alisha [4.7K]

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer: When we’re bored, the brain begins a process called “autobiographical planning,” which refers to when people have the chance to reflect on our lives, which can lead to establishing our goals and the way we think we can achieve them.

Explanation:

In her 2017 TED Talk (How Boredom Can Lead to Your Most Brilliant Ideas), Manoush Zomorodi claims there´s an important connection between boredom, creativity, and innovation. Since the moments of boredom allow the brain to make connections between dissimilar ideas and develop problem-solving ideas, it´s important not to fill our moments of boredom with distracting activities, such as scrolling through the cellphone.
