A massive thanks to Keisha and Andi for running their "A Skirt In Suspense" activity over February half term! It was inspiring seeing everyone's skirt designs, from rigid hemispheres to a web of modular triangles 📐 #ASkirtInSuspense #MathsCity #Leeds #maths #STEM #Yorkshire

Take two polynomials: A: 0x³+1x²+0x+1 B: 1x³+1x²+1x+0 The coefficients A: 0101 B: 1110 are binary numbers. So the arithmetic of polynomials is the same as the arithmetic of numbers in finite fields. It’s a beautiful human and mathematical story 👉🏼 quantamagazine.org/a-rosetta…
