I do maths as a hobby but I'm very visual/spatial thinker and not good at proofs/jargon. I've also made several math video games (supermathworld.com is the latest).
What I've found is that high interest and aptitude is not enough for community recognition. It seems like a pretty competitive thing, you have to do something significant like prove an unproven theorem to really get "recognition".
But why do you want recognition? Or is your goal just to have more fun?
- fratlas 10y agoAny advice on a visual/spatial person's method to learn linear algebra? Specifically matrices and why transformations are important, not just how to perform them.
