I am really excited about my studies of Pythagorus for my MathArt class! I'm amazed that without any formal writing from Pythagorus that he holds such an impact on today's mathematics. He was a great teachers, scholar and quite a mysterious man. There are statues, writings from people about his work passed down through the ages.
I'm much intrigued about his work laying the foundation for mathematics in music.
