CIRCLE WITH A DOT

Mar '26 Notes: https://susam.net/26c.htmlBits and pieces of stuff I came across last month. It nearly became a group theory primer, but there is also a bit of algebraic graph theory and some Linux stuff towards the end.#mathematics #blog #post #linux #technology

Fun math fact: 19937 is prime even when you take the end digit and put it back at the start repeatedly. It's known as a circular prime:19937 = prime71993 = prime37199 = prime93719 = prime99371 = primeIt's also one of the 52 known Mersenne prime p-values (2^p-1), as 2^19937-1 is prime, and this Mersenne prime is the most common used period length for the Mersenne Twister pseudorandom number generator.#Math #Mathematics #PrimeNumbers #MersennePrime #CircularPrime

The Mathematical Association of America has a collection of articles about π from their various journals available to read online, all free access! https://maa.tandfonline.com/journals/uamm20/collections/Mathematics-of-Pi#mathematics #pi

@aleph_omega_plus_four@mastodon.world As much as TeX was a giant leap forward at the time, to me it is kind of outdated now. It is considered very stable by its developers and we should not expect any significant shift in functionality any time soon. Typst is not mature yet, but very usable. It feels like a modern programming languages and has an interesting package ecosystem. The main drawback is that it is not supported by the vast majority of publishers. I whish I could use it more!

@gutenberg_org I wonder if the finder of the manuscript shouted anything memorable

@SnowyCA All guests get a π sized slice!

Happy π Day #Mathematics
