Look around... up, down, right, left... what do u see? --- just give it a brief moment,,, seriously... what do u see?

Have you realised that , everything you took at, touch , feel , smell ... even things you happen to think about (sometimes) , has something to do with maths? strange but true!

This computer you using for instance... some heavy math was involved in the making of it, the clothes you're wearing is another example... in fact, at the core of everything in the entire universe --- there exists maths!

    Here's to math!
    *respect!

    ?

    not everything, but almost all, can be mapped into a function, but i know of things that has driven a lot of Mathematicians to madness (and sometime suicide).

    *searching for the link with the documentary.

    @ LN, hehehehe,
    well most things in the universe has got math at the core! --- wait , hold up, --- what am i talking about--- actually not most things but Everything got math at the core!
    daaaamn,

    that link,,, it reminds me of the film " A beautiful mind !"

    another movie example is: 'Pi' http://www.pithemovie.com/gifpage.html

    I wouldn't say, 'math at the core' --- I would say, they can be mapped into a function.

    *hmmm, this is odd --- considering I've taught maths before and what you are saying was how I used to open my class: Mathematics is everything.

    But, I've come to learn that somethings are dam near impossible to define --- e.g the definition of what 'change' is.

    One school of thought believes "change is a measure of time", whereas the other school believes, "time is a measure of change". (well I think Temporal Logic for one is rather tough to quantify completely and soundly).

    and I think Fractals are also hard to map out --- and that understated word: infinity.

    but to avoid an argument, I can understand why you would say that, but, I do not agree that Mathematics is the complete definition of it all --- a layman's counter-argument would be: if that is true, then why do we have a study of psychology and philosophy, they need no mathematics to explain the madness of men?

    hmmm.....
    that's quite logical...!

    *thinks even more!

    hmm,

    Mathematicians won the war. Mathematicians broke the Japanese codes and built the A-bomb. In medicine or economics, in technology or in space, battle lines are being drawn.

    what more can i say?

  10. ntsasa

    that's why we leave the maths to the mathematicians, and we get on with the business of living [the maths] ;-)

    cudn say it betta ntsasa

    calculus confuse us...

    Who's the famous "black" mathematician ever?
    ofcourse famous for his work--- not the other fame...

    nina sum1

    i used to love maths but really suck(ed) at it!
    i dont know how or why! but god gave me other talents
    so i'ma K.I.M

  15. lebogang nkoane

    does it matter?

    What I love 'bout mathematics is that it is without prejudice --- it is only the human heart that chooses to do harm/good with science/maths.

    I think celebrating people for achieving something because of their race, culture, creed, ethnicity divides us even more.

    Where would it stop: black, white, indian, albino, tall, short, fat, thin, blind, Zulu, Xhosa, yadi-yada-yada. Is it not good enough that 'somebody' did some good and that's it? is it better if that person is black, white, indian, albino, tall, short, fat, thin, blind, zulu, xhosa, yadi-yada-yada?

    *that's my last, pseudo-socio-response, for the week, I promise.

    my favourite mathematician is the one who figured out how to mould a perfectly round Lindt ball, and fill it with the smoothest most decadent chocolate ever, all without seams or ridges.....just smooth and Swiss

    @lilji. do u know that the pythegorus theory was proven to be false by some american scientist??

    apparently

    ntsasa, a girl after my own heart...maths frightens me, so LN you should consider intimate portraits, that's maths too isnt it

  19. Makhaya

    dig the angles. so much going on in the pic. ill.

    mash™

    @ntsasa: now that is living the maths [life].

    *drool

    mash™

    @LN: maths explains all in the end. we just have to find a way. it's there...

    my maths teacher lady hated me, i sucked ass at maths but i used to try hard...

  23. NguJaz

    nothing worse than tryin' hard to suck ass
