These retrospective anniversary editions of the Mathematics Calendars are the last calendars Theoni Pappas will produce. The contents of each calendar are culled from the best puzzles and most fascinating aspects of mathematics featured in previous editions. A section of The Mathematics Calendar 2001 provides updates and footnotes that updates the topics highlighted each month. These calendars allow you to unlock a fascinating world of mathematical challenges and learning.
Problems cover the spectrum from basic arithmetic to calculus.
The answer is only one small part in the process of solving a problem. The challenge is discovering how to arrive at the solution and possibly discovering more than one method of solving it. The Anniversary edition Mathematics Calendar 2001 is loaded with challenging puzzles and problems and short essays on the ways in which math integrates other fields. Among this year's featured monthly topics are chaos theory, Mathematics and Cubism, hyperspace, and codes and ciphers. The problems range in difficulty from arithmetic to calculus.
