@MikeBoyd teaches me how to code in Python

The master of learning himself – @MikeBoyd – teaches me how to code in Python by writing a simple algorithm to find a sum of 3 cubes equal to the first 100 positive integers. The approach follows that of Miller and Woollett (1955). Read the paper explaining the method for yourself here: https://tomrocksmaths.files.wordpress.com/2022/10/journal-of-london-math-soc-january-1955-miller-solutions-of-the-diophantine-equation-x3-y3-z3-k.pdf This video was recorded in Oxford when Mike came to visit to take a mock maths admissions interview.
