Can somebody explain what’s exactly special and unique about [The Hat](https://www.sciencealert.com/this-surprisingly-simple-shape-solves-a-longstanding-mathematical-problem) to me like I’m five?
I understand that the shape’s unique feature can be explained by knowing the difference between periodic and aperiodic tiling. I’ve read about it online but I think I still need further explanation in layman’s terms.
Thank you.
