Metroplex Math Circle will start its 2011-12 sessions with our own Radu Sorici! This session should be very interesting for students beginning to work on computer programming or accomplished coders who want a better understanding of the mathematical principles behind their work.
In this session Radu will discuss some elementary mathematics that are useful for computer science. Some of the topics covered: logic notation, methods of proof, sets, graph theory, counting principles, etc. In addition, we will look at some real world applications of the topics discussed.

By popular demand here are the slides from Radu Sorici’s excellent lecture on Algebraic Inequalities. This was great preparation for those students taking the AMC 10 and 12 test today. Best of luck to everyone.

Radu Sorici is a senior at UTD with a double major: Mathematics and Computer Science. He has been a participant in the international math competitions. Radu works closely with Dr. Andreescu on several projects, including AwesomeMath and the online journal Mathematical Reflections.
Magic Squares are a well-known but endlessly fascinating form of number puzzle. This should be a very accessible lecture for all students.
