Ramanujan’s elegant formulas for calculating pi, developed more than a century ago, have unexpectedly resurfaced at the heart of modern physics. Researchers at IISc discovered that the same ...

Most of us first hear about the irrational number π (pi)—rounded off as 3.14, with an infinite number of decimal digits—in school, where we learn about its use in the context of a circle. More ...

Mathematicians may have a better way to measure agreement across different datasets. Agreement affects reproducibility, meta-analysis, and prediction to fill in missing data points. We need a more ...

Google on Wednesday (12 November) featured a special Doodle celebrating the quadratic equation, one of mathematics' most fundamental formulas that has shaped everything from engineering to economics.

DAT Freight & Analytics has released “significant” updates to its DAT One load board, the company said. The new updates will help carriers find quality loads quickly, negotiate better rates with ...

In a recent study, mathematicians from Freie Universität Berlin have demonstrated that planar tiling, or tessellation, is much more than a way to create a pretty pattern. Consisting of a surface ...

Break down even the most complex formulas! Learn the mindset and steps to truly grasp any math expression, no matter the level. Satellite pictures show scale of Iran’s water "disaster" 'Disgusted' ...

While building a simpler model for particle interactions, scientists made a sleek new pi. Representations of pi help scientists use values close to real life without storing a million digits. The ...

Ever wondered how social media platforms decide how to fill our feeds? They use algorithms, of course, but how do these algorithms work? A series of corporate leaks over the past few years provides a ...

Supply chains consist of imperfect humans struggling to make perfect decisions. In the end, though, it all comes down to a game of numbers. That, at least, is the theory behind mathematical ...
