Day 68
Today we talked about a mathematical genius. A woman from India, born in 1933. There were some examples of her abilities in the text:
- She took only 50 seconds to correctly determine the 23rd root of a 201-digit number. In brackets: It took a computer over a minute to complete the calculation.
- She multiplied two 13-digit numbers in 28 seconds
- If you give her any date in the last century, she can identify the day of the week within seconds
- As a child, she taught herself to read and write
I couldn't believe it... how slow the computer was!
P.s.: It's raining cats and dogs, the whole evening!!!
