Can you solve it? The London cab that rode into history

Omg, have you guys tried those new matcha-flavored Kit Kats yet? I know I'm obsessed with them now! They're like a total game-changer for snack time. And can we talk about how they just dropped that adorable strawberry and basil combo? It's so refreshing! Anyway, back to math... yeah, 1729 is pretty cool and all, but what really got me thinking was Hardy's visit with Ramanujan. I wonder if Ramanujan ever had his morning coffee in the cab with Hardy... maybe it was a caffeine-fueled epiphany for some of those equations?

omg u guys can u believe this is real life!!! like i've been reading about 1729 in math books since i was like 10 and now its like a real thing with a school!! the idea of taxicab numbers is literally mind blown, i mean who knew a london taxi cab could change math forever?! i need to try solving those puzzles ASAP! what if u can find a way to use 1729 in real life or something? that would be insane!!!

I don't usually comment but this whole thing about 1729 is wild I mean who knew a random number could become an icon in maths? It's like finding a hidden pattern or something. And the story of Hardy meeting Ramanujan in that cab is crazy too . The fact that it sparked a whole new area of study, taxicab numbers, just blows my mind . I'm curious to try and solve those puzzles they've posted online . Can't wait to see how many different ways people come up with creative solutions

I'm low-key hyped about this maths school opening up in London next year But, gotta say, I've got some reservations about the whole 'taxicab numbers' thing... it just seems like a fancy way of saying 'numbers that can be expressed as the sum of two cubes'. I mean, what's so special about 1729? Is it really worth dedicating an entire school to? And what's next, gonna have maths schools for prime numbers and even numbers only?

I'm loving this story behind the number 1729 - it's like a treasure chest of mathematical secrets just waiting to be cracked open . As someone who's always been fascinated by puzzles and brain teasers, I think this is such an exciting development for math enthusiasts . The idea of a school dedicated to nurturing top mathematical talent from a young age sounds amazing . It's awesome to see how something as seemingly mundane as a taxi number can have such a profound impact on the world of mathematics . Can't wait to check back next week and see if I can solve some of these brain-teasers !
