Mathemaniac | 15-year-old did mathematical research?! What was my thinking process back then? @mathemaniac | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Mathematical research can be accessible. This video series somewhat faithfully records the thinking process of a 15-year-old in his mathematical research. Although it turned out that someone had made a similar discovery, this independent and nontrivial discovery still stands to prove that mathematical research is not far-fetched.
