“Outside observers often assume that the more complicted a piece of mathematics is, the more mathematicians admire it. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mathematicians admire elegance and simplicity above all else, and the ultimate goal in solving a problem is to find the method that does the job in the most efficient manner. Though the major accolades are given to the individual who solves a particular problem first, credit (and gratitude) always goes to those who subsequently find a simpler solution.” FirstsDoeProblemJobsIndividualGivenGoalPiecesParticularGratitudeMajorsSolutionsUltimateMathematicsMethodAssumingSimplicityCreditSolveAdmireEfficientMathematicianObserversEleganceUltimate GoalAccolades Author:Keith Devlin
