the simpsons and their mathematical secrets by simon singh

Simon Singhs excellent book blows the lid off a decades-long conspiracy to secretly educate cartoon viewers. So, finally the research article appeared, and I came in with the reprints of this article and I said, 'Hey, I've got an article in Discrete Applied Mathematics.' Everyone was quite impressed except Ken Keeler, who said, 'Oh yeah, I had a paper in that journal a couple of months ago. The brainy book by the bestselling author of Fermats Enigma-a must for anyone interested in numbers and mathematics, as well as for the millions of Simpsons fans worldwide.

So, by the time the paper was published, I had been working at The Simpsons for a while, and Ken Keeler had also been hired at that point. After the paper was accepted, there was an extremely long lag between it being submitted, revised, and published. In The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets,Simon Singh explains how the brilliant writers, some of the mathematicians, have smuggled in mathematical jokes throughout the cartoons twenty-five year history, exploring everything from to Mersenne primes, from Eulers equation to the unsolved riddle of P vs. I subsequently left graduate school to come and write for The Simpsons.

“I had written this paper on pancake numbers with help from my adviser, Manuel Blum, who's a well-known computer scientist, and we submitted it to a journal called Discrete Applied Mathematics.
