The British mathematician G.H. Hardy was paying a call on the Indian mathematician Srinivisa Ramanujan. "I had ridden in taxi cab number 1729 and remarked that the number seemed to me rather a dull one," Hardy later recalled. Ramanujan disagreed. "It is a very interesting number," he insisted. "It is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways." The number 1729 can be expressed as 1 or it can be expressed as 9 . The number 87539319 can be expressed as the sum of two cubes in three different ways, as 167

Math Games Beautiful References Ed Pegg Jr., January 4, 2006 "Gentle Reader: This is a handbook about TeX, a new typesetting system intended for the creation of beautiful books — and especially for books that contain a lot of mathematics." (Donald Knuth, Preface for The TeXBook At the start of the last century, typography required long hours of work with either lead blocks or gas-powered linotype machines. The average life expectancy of a printer was 28 years. About half of them contracted tuberculosis. Even as late as the 1970's, the Environmental Protection Agency had to increase the acceptable amount of lead in a worker's bloodstream due to every Linotype operator exceeding the suggested limit. The 1970's also marked a huge change in printing as publishers replaced linotype experts with computer typography. Unfortunately, for mathematics, the new printing methods looked terrible . Donald Knuth took a look at the galleys of The Art of Computer Programming and decided they were unpublishable. He figured he could fix computer typography in about six months. The actual time was ten years, but his creation of

John continued working with Dave through the first several months of his eighth grade school year. Using the study skills Dave taught him, John is now maintaining an A average on his own steam.” Glowing performance review from a recent volunteer tutoring job: Tutoring background: What subjects I tutor: grades 5-8 or equivalent college remedial class (not "Algebra II" or "Intermediate Algebra") It's been my experience that students having trouble in more advanced math classes usually lack a strong foundation in the basics, so I've chosen to specialize in the basics. As a bonus, this has given me a lot of practice in tutoring the basics. Rate: $30 per hour plus travel reimbursement Main branch, 125 14th Street
