I find these two short videos slightly unsatisfying in how they show but don't explain why flower pedals and plant leaves follow Fibonacci.

Vihart has a wonderful 3-part series on it if you really wanna dig into it!

Persian mathematician Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī was born ~780. He not only revolutionized algebra, but his contributions in mathematics, astronomy & geography have been central to hundreds of years of scientific advances.

Known as the father of algebra, al-Khwārizmī became one of the most influential thinkers of all time. The terms algebra & algorithm are derived from his name & work. https://www.loc.gov/item/2021666184/ #HistoryRemix #history #science #math

This list of the earliest know use of maths terms is an amazing way to loose time finding old (but super interesting) papers to read thru! Stuff you may likely never come across otherwise!

For someone like myself who loves, but is less than proficient at, maths.... this is a treasure trove of older and more approachable technical papers! And if you are a maths wizard, well I'm sure you can appreciate it for the history and maybe add some obscure older papers to your offline archive! ;)
