Overview
In this project, we will learn how to make a Greedy Cup using paper cups and a straw. The Pythagorean cup, or ‘greedy’ cup, is designed to empty its contents once filled to a certain level. As water is poured in, it rises through the central column, and once it reaches the top of the straw inside the column, a siphon forms.
