I am not a mathematician but I realize and love the beauty of mathematics. Our life and surroundings are all driven and governed by mathematics. How?

Everything in this universe can be modeled using mathematics equation. When we move our fingers, when coins are dropped, when we kick, when two cars collide, and everything. Nothing cannot be modeled by mathematics.

Imagine a ripple on a surface of water. How can we model the ripple using mathematics equation? Consider this simple equation:

This 3D model (QuickTime movie) was generated using this simple equation to model the water ripples. Fascinating, isn’t it? Of course, this is only a simple modeling.

    Nature whispers in numbers. If we have ears we can listen, if we have eyes we can see, if we have curiosity we can experience.
    Wel come to world of numerics!!!
