Up to p154
Given the description of how Numbo works I feel that it does a pretty good job of mimicking humans solving these problems. However, even with all the similarities to humans, I still believe that it is still nowhere near close to completely replicating human mental process for Numble problems. This is because every human is different. Some may try to approach the problem different due to the simplest things such as personality differences. An aggressive person may rush and try to compute numbers as fast as he/she can to try and produce a lucky quick result. A passive person may look at all the numbers and develop an efficient plan to solve the problem. Numbo does not have the capability to take these differences into account. Numbo is not specific enough to replicate human mental processes when it comes to these problems. As for what Numbo sets out to do, in a general sense it does have some similarities to human mental processes, but there is just too much missing to call it a model of human mental processing.
