Watching movies allows people to, although for a brief moment, step out of the limits and boundaries of their lives and step into the lives of others. Especially in this day and age where it is increasingly difficult to focus on one thing at a time, I find watching a…

I remember that my mathematical education started with numbers. First, my father, then later, my elementary teacher, taught me how to count as my elementary math education. However, 2400 years ago, everything was utterly different, and kids were taught geometry first. Before Jesus, geometry was more important than numbers. For…

In the past few weeks, many of my readers have asked me for book recommendations about mathematical proof. Below, I have listed some of the books that my teachers have recommended to me in my academic career and that I have had the opportunity to read. I hope that these resources will reinvigorate your brain to think more mathematically. — People sometimes find themselves wanting to learn about math. When they explore this curiosity by opening and trying to read a math book, however, they feel like they are stranded in the middle of an ocean. That is because most mathematicians assume their audience is at the same level as…

There is an undeniable allure to the absolute certainty of mathematics, a field where there is always a definitive right and wrong. Unlike the subjective nature of art, where one person’s masterpiece might be another’s mediocrity, mathematical truths are universal and unchanging. Equations and theorems are not open to interpretation…

It’s fascinating to think about how much of our daily lives are tied to mathematics, a subject that exists solely in our minds. From balancing a checkbook to calculating the time it will take to travel to a new destination like the Moon, we rely on the principles of mathematics…

“Podcast” is a term that can be used to define post-modern radio broadcasting roughly. It is a beautiful tool that can be used to liven up commutes to work and help one expand their knowledge by listening to informative broadcasts. Most people might have that one unused podcast app that…

Before starting my mathematics education, rain was a significant natural occurrence for me. Right after the rain had ended, I would run to the streets and put the paper boat my father would make for me on the side of our street where water had collected. My favorite pastime was…

In the world of mathematics, you’d expect that the chances of a child correctly matching their shoes to the right feet, or the possibility of correctly inserting a USB into a computer port, would stand at a clean 50 percent. This is based on the simple premise that there are…

The question of how mathematicians think is closely related to the question, “How does a musician compose?” Similarly, this question is asked to learn how the creative process works. Those who are interested in computer science or especially artificial intelligence can give the correct answer to this question. A real…
