[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious, as the parent of some mathy kids, although mine are probably too old. What do you see as the benefits of "pure math" over applications and problem solving?[/quote] I was just a kid. It was interesting and cool compared to normal school. I didn't have AoPS or RSM or any modern Internet stuff like 3B1B and Mathologer compare to. One benefit was that when I read books from the county academic library, and when I got to college and did a pure math major, the language was familiar. The math was still hard. [/quote]
