From "Nolite turbare circulos meos!" to "Don’t delete my folder"

Journal Title: Annals. Computer Science Series - Year 2009, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

Arhimede îsi desena figurile pe nisipul plajei, pe pământ bătut sau în cenusă pusă pe o pardoseală ori pe propriul să corp, uns în prealabil cu untdelemn; pe corp trasa figurile cu ajutorul unghiei. Când generalul roman Marcellus a cucerit în anul 212 î.e.n. Siracusa din Sicilia, orasul lui Arhimede, un soldat roman a dat peste acest geniu contemplându-si cercurile pe care le desenase pe nisip. "Nolite turbare circulos meos!" (nu-mi strica cercurile) i-a strigat Arhimede soldatului; dar romanul, iritat, l-a înjunghiat cu spada, omorându-l. În zilele de azi locul de exprimare a ideilor matematice a fost înlocuit de ecranul calculatorului iar platformele dedicate studiului matematicii au deschis o nouă perspectivă domeniului cercetării. O incursiune în domeniu este desigur o provocare dar şi o invitaţie pentru educaţi şi educatori.
