3. Do Not Erase: Mathematicians and Their Chalkboards

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_Not_Erase:...

   Writing from the point of view as a mathematician, Adhemar Bultheel calls it "a wonderful mirror" that could help other mathematicians think about what they do, while Elizaveta Dubrovina finds it to be "a nostalgic reminder of the tactility of chalk and the conviviality of in-person collaboration" in what has become a largely online world, her ...

   Octave (aka GNU Octave) is an alternative to MATLAB. Originally conceived in 1988 by John W. Eaton as a companion software for an undergraduate textbook, Eaton later opted to modify it into a more flexible tool. Development begun in 1992 and the alpha version was released in 1993.

5. Barnsley fern - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnsley_fern

   The fern code developed by Barnsley is an example of an iterated function system (IFS) to create a fractal. This follows from the collage theorem. He has used fractals to model a diverse range of phenomena in science and technology, but most specifically plant structures. IFSs provide models for certain plants, leaves, and ferns, by virtue of ...

6. Writing lines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_lines

   Writing lines is a long-standing form of school discipline, having survived even as other old punishments such as school corporal punishment and dunce hats fell out of favour in the 20th century. [2] In a 1985 study, over half of respondent teachers in an English-speaking country indicated awareness of the use of writing to discipline students. [5]

7. Hardware random number generator - Wikipedia

   A USB-pluggable hardware true random number generator. In computing, a hardware random number generator (HRNG), true random number generator (TRNG), non-deterministic random bit generator (NRBG), or physical random number generator is a device that generates random numbers from a physical process capable of producing entropy, unlike the pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) that utilizes a ...
