the wonderful world of maths!

Maths is glamorous, Oscar-winning work for almost everyone who practises it, and for those wanting to get into the seductive world of calculus, Eric Weisstein's World Of Mathematics is a perfect introduction and reference. Fascinating even for the layman, with details on a myriad of fractals (far-out, man!), Archimedes' cattle problem (MOO!), and even the number of the beast (take that, Ozzy!), the site is funded by wunderkind Stephen Wolfram, whose work with his book 'A New Kind Of Science' has thrust him controversially into the public eye, but whose computer program 'Mathematica', sorta like a Casio scientific calculator times infinity, is something eggheads can ALL agree to love.
