Manjil and PankajLet's pursue this effort - publication of a book on
mathematics essays in Assamese.More and more youths in our state remain unaware
of the beauty of mother tongue and literature. Someone has to act and this
may be a sincere beginning.
I am also postive that there will be support once the first step is made.
ThanksAnkur da

Dear Ankur Da,
Yes, indeed the article is really good. We (me and Pankaj Mahanta) have been
planning for a long time to write a book with ten essays on mathematics and
mathematicians in Assamese. Somehow the project has not gone very far ahead. We
have three essays so far only.
With regards,
Manjil

Thanks Manjil for theposting .The article by Pankaj is superb – I was
thoroughly captivatedby the narration. Although the topic is mathematics, his
deft use of Assamesewords is clear enough to be easily comprehensible to the
intended audience. Fermat'sLast Theorem has captivated the world for last four
hundred years partlybecause of its deceptive simplicity.Sir Andrew
Wilessolution to the Theorem is certainly one of the most supreme
humanintellectual achievements. However, Andrew Wiles proof is based on
complex mathematical fields, while thereare still many believer’s in
Fermat’sthose enigmatic words inthe form of a note scribbled in the margin of
a text book“I have discovered a truly remarkable proof which this margin is too
small to contain.”I amsharing the Pankaj article link below.অশ্ৰুসিক্ত এন্ড্ৰু

Dear all,
Recently Sir Andrew Wiles was awarded the 2016 Abel Prize in mathematics, a
prize equal in stature with the Nobel prizes. Sir Wiles was awarded this prize
for his remarkable achievement of proving Fermat's Last Theorem in 1993-94.
Fermat's Last Theorem deals with something called diophantine equations in
mathematics and had eluded scores of brilliant mathematicians for close to 360
years until Sir Wiles proved the result in a herculean effort spanning 7 years
and over 100 journal pages. This is in my opinion one of the most supreme human
intellectual achievements.
Pankaj Jyoti Mahanta has written the most wonderful popular math article that I
have ever read, about this saga. The article can be read in its entirety here
http://as.gonitsora.com/andrew-wiles-fermats-last-theorem/. It is also
appearing as a two part article in Niyomiya Barta. I would urge the members to
share this article with young students, so that they can be motivated from the
example of Sir Wiles.
