Podcasts about fermat's last theorem

It's a dark and stormy night and we're breaking the bank at "The Royale"!Podcaster and Daily Star Trek News host Alison Pitt joins the show this week to discuss an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation that takes a break from utopian space science fiction to play a little craps. When Riker and his away team step through a mysterious revolving door, they find themselves trapped in a living pulp novel. Now, they'll have to find a way to escape the Royale or they'll end up as dead as the bellboy!One of the benefits of a weekly format is that it lets Star Trek expand beyond its premise and explore storytelling in other genres and formats. "The Royale" is great not only because it's incredibly fun, but also because it allows a storied franchise like Star Trek to sample from and comment on other forms of pop literature. On this episode, we talk about the merits of genre fiction, the tensions behind-the-scenes that sparked creativity on early TNG, why Trek should "go funny" more often, the way holodeck and fantasy episodes bring metafictional elements to the franchise, and Trek's strategy for turning young viewers into life-long fans. We also discuss the thin distinctions between pulp and sci-fi, solving Fermat's Last Theorem, uplifting fan voices, missing "silly" episodes, Texas the serial killer, having a "comedy guy/girl" on your staff, cribbing from "2001", the perils of first contact, "fixing" your die, a human terrarium, googling "playwrights -shakespeare", Captain Picard using audible, Pulaski is Riker's new mom, Chief Quip Officer, Alison talks about how Star Trek Online makes a meal out of Trek canon, and Aaron has an idea for a "Royale" sequel series!When the train comes in, EVERYBODY rides!Follow Alison on Twitter and listen to Daily Star Trek News!https://twitter.com/adastra1930https://dailystartreknews.com/https://alisonpitt.comLearn the story behind your favorite Trek stories with Backtrekking!http://www.twitter.com/backtrekkingShow us your car on Facebook and Twitter and the Just Enough Trope Discord!http://www.facebook.com/eistpodhttp://www.twitter.com/eistpodhttps://discord.gg/UeytGNPBuy us a hotel on Patreon and Ko-Fi!http://www.patreon.com/eistpodhttps://ko-fi.com/E1E01M2UASubscribe to the show on iTunes!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/enterprising-individuals/id1113165661?mt=2

Ripped from the headlines, as Dick Wolf is wont to say, we present to you the most timely of discussions. Of course, Walker takes us down theoretical tangents once again, whereas Mark rolls his eyes and tried to keep things on track--the standard roles that our hosts always seem to fall into. In Walker's defense, the Kool-Aid Man is a pressing philosophical issue. Fortunately, boardgaming has resolved the thorny matter of his (its?) identity; with such a success, surely Fermat's Last Theorem could have been resolved by boardgames had that nerd Wiles not solved it first.

Fermat's Last Theorem: a fairy tale of dramatic mathematics.

The Simpson's might be one of the most successful TV shows ever written, but it's also the most mathematical! Science writer Simon Singh shares the in-jokes, hidden references and maths tributes from the show, as well as his own love of Fermat's infamous Last Theorem and why it's important to stretch young mathematicians. Plus we ponder the point of proofs and have a go at disproving the Collatz Conjecture. Mixtape: 1. Car 67 by Driver 67 2. 7, 8, 9 by Barenaked Ladies 3. 99 Luftballoons by Nene 4.

Kiley Roberson gives a biography on the 18th century French mathematician Sophie Germain. Sophie is one of the first mathematicians to make significant progress on proving Fermat's Last Theorem, as well as making several contributions all over mathematics, physics, and philosophy. This podcast is part of Damien Adams' series Women in Math: The Limit Does Not Exist.

The hilarious Jesse Popp (@JessePopp) joins Matt and Andy to talk about his former life as a blackjack card-counter, a newly discovered tessellating pentagon, Penrose tiling, Fermat's Last Theorem, space lettuce, giant marrows, angry people in local newspapers, pumpkins smashing cars, a goat-throwing festival, dreamy eye movements, brain-scanning software, Hannibal's mask prototypes, brain dipsticks and trepanning.

Simon Singh isn't exactly your average fan of Fox's The Simpsons. He has a Ph.D. in particle physics from Cambridge, and made an award-winning documentary about Fermat's Last Theorem. Let's be frank: He's a math geek.But then, so are a surprisingly large number of the show's writers. You may not have realized it, but as Singh shows in his new book, The Simpsons and their Mathematical Secrets, a seemingly endless supply of mathematical jokes and references are crammed into each Simpsons episode.We talk to Singh about The Simpsons, as well as his work in science advocacy and libel reform.This episode also features a discussion of some of the science behind Thanksgiving: Why gratitude is good for us, and what kinds of food safety issues you should know about when it comes to Thanksgiving leftovers.Subscribe:itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/inquiring-minds/id711675943feeds.feedburner.com/inquiring-minds

Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss Fermat's Last Theorem. In 1637 the French mathematician Pierre de Fermat scribbled a note in the margin of one of his books. He claimed to have proved a remarkable property of numbers, but gave no clue as to how he'd gone about it. "I have found a wonderful demonstration of this proposition," he wrote, "which this margin is too narrow to contain". Fermat's theorem became one of the most iconic problems in mathematics and for centuries mathematicians struggled in vain to work out what his proof had been. In the 19th century the French Academy of Sciences twice offered prize money and a gold medal to the person who could discover Fermat's proof; but it was not until 1995 that the puzzle was finally solved by the British mathematician Andrew Wiles. With: Marcus du Sautoy Professor of Mathematics & Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at the University of Oxford Vicky Neale Fellow and Director of Studies in Mathematics at Murray Edwards College at the University of Cambridge Samir Siksek Professor at the Mathematics Institute at the University of Warwick. Producer: Natalia Fernandez.

This is the first of three sessions by Dr Joel Feinstein on how and why we do proofs. Dr Feinstein's blog is available at http://explainingmaths.wordpress.com/ The aim of this session is to motivate students to understand why we might want to do proofs, why proofs are important, and how they can help us. In particular, the student will learn the following: proofs can help you to really see WHY a result is true; problems that are easy to state can be hard to solve (Fermat's Last Theorem); sometime

Solving Fermat's Last Theorem had intrigued mathematicians for centuries. In June 1993 a British academic, Andrew Wiles, thought he'd cracked it. But then someone pointed out a flaw in his calculations and it took him another year to correct it.
