I have to make a math project for school, that means: make a piece of didactic material. Some of my class are making icosahedrons and all that **** but I think that kinda boring.

Has anyone got any ideas? Maybe something with a 3d program or so or something with fractals. If anyone has some cool idea for my math project please post.

haha...that's exactly what i was thinking man...AND I'M A MATH MAJOR!!!

I suppose it must be some geometry thing that I have long since forgotten. My only geometry course was my sophomore year of high school and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have anything to do with Calculus or Algebra...

Might I suggest doing a project about the Golden Ratio/Golden Rectangle/Fibanacci's Sequence (if you do a little research you will find that they are all the same thing really)...it's some pretty freaky (and interesting) stuff...

Or 41 and the series of 41 following prime numbers.

Lots of math stuff here:
