First of all, you must understand that I am not a Salmon Fish !

“To myself I am only a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me”

################################

I am an ordinary lone man interested in mathematics, statistics, and cryptology. I like polite, silent and wise people.

################################

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference

#################################

George Polya said, “If you can’t solve a problem, then there is an easier problem you can’t solve. Find it.”

Some words I like :

  • After having a healthy body, the most valuable thing is having a family

  • Mathematics : that which is understood , not memorized or calculated.

  • The biggest hindrance in front of my education is my university.

  • I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

  • Since the fabric of the universe is most perfect and the work of a most wise Creator, nothing at all takes place in the universe in which some rule of maximum or minimum does not appear ... there is absolutely no doubt that every affect in the universe can be explained satisfactorily from final causes, by the aid of the method of maxima and minima, as it can be from the effective causes themselves ... Of course, when the effective causes are too obscure, but the final causes are readily ascertained, the problem is commonly solved by the indirect method.
