I like this q, in the vein of "objective measures of subjective reality" For me: Map colors first: pink-red 2 matches purple 4 (easy), blackish 7 repels eggplant 8 (ugh but ok) Stack em up, 8+7=15, anchor (green) 5, carry (yellow) 1, collapse remaining colors into 7, = 75https://twitter.com/Wparks91/status/1143666051793788928 …

That's interesting. I do roughly the same thing: basically add digits left to right, and occasionally correct where I'm at when there's something to carry. But if the numbers were on paper I'd probably go right to left.

I'd do very different things with other 4 digit numbers. In this case it immediately seems to me that 58+24 and 84+39 are likely to be easy, so this is a good route. With other numbers I'd use different routes.

Which is a long way from the grade-school algorithm, I guess. There's certainly some sense of making the algorithm up on-the-fly, in response to a sense of what will work most easily. (And sometimes messing up and backtracking when I realize a different approach would be easier)
