In this article, also for npub1cy06su88dl9crjvthx56mdpgd0m9dauplnjf58rvcqynj6p8uygq9uggw4 (npub1cy0…ggw4), math professor Manil Suri makes the case for other math holidays. "For January, I nominate the Golden Ratio, phi," he says. "Phi equals 1.618…, and since there’s no Jan. 61, we could celebrate it on Jan. 6." He'd like to see shindigs for Euler's number (Feb. 7), and Feigenbaum’s constant delta (April 6 — or maybe 7, if we're rounding up). Read more here.
