In a moment of drunken brilliance, a collaboration of students from Canada’s renowned University of Ottawa published the first-ever mathematical model for surviving a zombie attack. This mathematical model encourages humans to begin the process of zombie eradication as soon as possible and as hard as possible–news from the file marked duh!

This model, where S = susceptibles, Z = zombies and R = removed, is useful in calculating how quickly zombies will outnumber the given human population!

The mathletes win again.
