The Mathematical Calender: A New Blog Series!


The Mathematical Calender: 
A New Blog Series!

As maths graduate who graduated over two years ago now I find that I never took the time to appreciate the background of the subject while I was actually studying it. In recent weeks I have begun reading about some of the history and philosophy behind the topic.

As part of this I felt that I could look into important or celebrated regular events, professional and vocational, that take place around the world that relate to mathematics specifically. I could then update this blog with the basic details: what happens, where, when, and why. The result would be that I would slowly assemble some sort of crude calender that covers mathematics around the world throughout the year, learning as I go.

I initially started this series on my main blog, wanderingandwondering.blogspot.com, but have decided that it would be better to set up a separate blog for posts relating to mathematics, thus allowing me to keep the other blog open for miscellaneous junk.

This series will definitely be a slow burner but I'm looking forward to seeing how this pans out in the long run!


If you know of any events relating to mathematics then I'd love to know, it doesn't matter what county its in, just let me know by leaving a comment!
