Videos of the week:

Week 1: Fibonacci numbers (click here for more on the Fibonacci numbers).
Week 2: Light cycle scene from Tron.
Week 3: Flatland trailer. (The full movie is available here for class purposes only.) There's also projections of 4-dimensional cubes in our 3-dimensional space.
Week 4: The Battle of Trafalgar: Animated battle clip Facts on the battle Best animated re-enactment I could find (For more on this see the Additional Comments.)
Week 5: Mandelbrot zoom: video 1, video 2. Here's a cubic fractal zoom. (other copies: Videos: Mandelbrot set Newton Fractal (cubic) )
- Mathematica notebook for Newton's Method (pdf version here)
Week 6: Trick shots in pool (directions and constraints!).
- Week 6: Audio of the semester: I'm my own Grandpa; graphical version here (don't view this until you try to graph it!). Actually, this is a much better illustration of the relationships.
Week 7: coin sorting (this leads to Lebesgue's Measure Theory).
Week 8: Pacman (actually Ms. Pacman) You can play Pacman online here.
Week 9: Stacking blocks
Week 10: Conway's Game of Life: Gosper's glider gun, and a breeder leaving Gosper glider guns in its wake.
Week 11: The video of the week is a TED lecture (these are great talks, and worth hearing). We'll do Malcolm Gladwell on Spaghetti Sauce (but only a snippet starting around 5 minutes).

♦ Interesting news articles involving math (see also the course disclaimer about not suing me!)

Election fraud:

♦ Interesting videos

TED Lectures: http://www.ted.com/talks

Did You Know (2009 version)

Yes, Prime Minister: Manipulation Polls (YouTube video)

♦ Course disclaimer

I may occasionally say things such as `Probability is one of the most useful courses you can take' or 'If you know probability, stats and a programming language then you'll always be able to find employment'. I really should write `you should always be able to find employment', as nothing is certain. Thus, please consider yourself warned and while you may savor the thought of suing me and/or Williams College, be advised against this! I'm saying this because of the recent lawsuit of a graduate who was upset that she didn't have a job, and sued her school!
