This is just one of many untold histories in The Language of Mathematics: The Stories behind the Symbols by author and mathematician Raúl Rojas. In it, Rojas explores the complex, and sometimes ...

The world of mathematics is full of unreachable corners, where unsolvable problems live. Now, yet another has been exposed. In 1900, the eminent mathematician David Hilbert announced a list of 23 key ...

The famous power symbol that still dominates our current devices originated in the 1950s, an era when devices were operated through physical switches indicating "ON" and "OFF". Although these words ...

Well, do you know why power buttons use a symbol that looks like a broken circle with a vertical line down the top? Here’s what the symbol means and where it came from. The power symbol ...

An icon of an information logo. A mathematical 'plus' symbol. An icon indicating Time. An icon of a green tick. An icon of a greyed out success tick. An icon of a loading spinner. An icon of the ...

To bridge the gap, I found a scholar and mentor who connects the two traditions: Dr. Saleh Aram. Here, I’ll focus on his mathematical thinking (based on Western tradition) and his storytelling (based ...
